SUGGESTED COLLECTIONS OF BEST GROW- 
ING TYPES OF ORCHID PLANTS SUIT- 
ABLE FOR HOME GROWING 
Note: All Plants are adult plants, pot grown, 
and will flower on their present or new 
growth. All are Cattleya unless otherwise 
stated. 
SELECTION “A” —My selection or yours of 
one mature plant, from $8.50 to $15.00. 
Where possible I will endeavor to give you 
a plant to bloom during the season you want 
it to bloom, but if not available, final 
selection will be from a plant as close to 
that season that you wish. 
COLLECTION “B” — Three fine plants all of a 
different color and to bloom at a different 
time of the year, $25.00. State seasons 
desired and I will endeavor to comply. 
COLLECTION “C” — Four small Cattleyas, all 
to bloom at a different time, and all of a 
different color. These are fully mature 
plants or divisions of my fine stock. $25.00. 
COLLECTION “D” — Three ‘rare plants to in- 
clude 1 White, 1 Yellow and one Dark 
Burgundy or Red, to bloom at different 
times. Only $40.00. An excellent value. 
COLLECTION “E” —1 Vanda Joaquim, 1 Vanda 
Terre, 1 Xmas blooming Cattleya Orchid. 
$20.00. 
*“SURPRISE COLLECTION” — This consists of 
Cattleya Hybrids, Laelia Cattleyas and 
Brasso Cattleyas of most all colors. Tags 
have been lost on these, so you may find 
some to be rare white, yellow, alba, pink, 
green, bronze, red, or burgundy. All were 
originally very fine but over a period of 
years tags were lost. Collection of Six fine, 
vigorous plants $50.00. A single plant may 
be worth the price of the entire collection! 
* Note: On all other collections I select plants 
so that you will have no duplication of 
plants or colors, and also to give you the 
widest blooming seasons, the chief idea 
being to give you flowers throughout the 
year in those seasons that you prefer.
