ie LC OLIVER LINES x BLO MARION RYERSON - Oliver Lines was Bri See 
Mego well held bright rose flower. Lower half and side edges 1rp~6¥ 
uensia. Gold zones divided by purple-veined gold in throat. Pollen from brik 
rose, round and very ruffled Mari ee 
Late Fall season, z *on Ryerson was used. Both flovérs very fragrant. 
FI47 - IC OLIVER LINES x LC _DERRYNANE - Derrynane had broad, ruffled, solid 
royal purple lin en © —— : 
a eee ble lip end throat?” Grand form and texture. Oliver Lines described 
n e 
#748 = LC MAX J. PALM, JR. X BLC MARION RYERSON = Max Palm was a 94-inch laven- 
der bloom with darker, very ruffled Lip; gold throat. A truly spectacular flower. 
The Merion Ryerson was the same as described above. 
#749 ~ LO GEORGE PATTERSON X C. TRIANAE, VAR VALENTINE SARRA - Geo. Patterson 
was one of two striking, well rounded blue-lavender blooms. Even the dark purple 
in the lip had more blue tone then red. Practically no gold in throat, The fine 
variety of trienae had wide sepals and $-inch overlapping petals. Winter, 
#750 - C. BEN NEVIS X C. ST, PETERSBURG ~ This cross of free-flowering, heavy 
textured, early Summer blooming Ben Nevis with our best Winter St. Petersburg 
should produce fine large white flowers, probably twice yearly, Spring and Fall. 
#751 5 C. AMBTHYSTOGLOSSA xX OG, HARRISONIANA X C. ENID = Keeping in mind the 
ever increasing demand for small, heavy textured cluster Cattleyas of bi-foliate 
growth habits, I made this cross of two bright pink flowers. Herly Spring. 
#752 = C. HENRIETTA JAPHET X C. AMETHYSTOGLOSSA - Bi-foliate again, this cross 
ae 
should be lighter, more delicate pink, as Henrietta is pure White, heavy. 
#755 - Ce. UNDINE X C. HENRIETTA JAPHET = Small, White, heavy, waxy clusters 
were the aim here. Undine has yellow in the throat, Henrietta practically none. 
#764 =C. LEDA X BLC MARION RYERSON - This Marion Ryerson - practically identi- 
cal to the one pictured in the Folder - was crossed on our BEST Leda, solid plun- 
purple with a few orange veins in throat. Excellent shape and texture. Winter. 
#755 = C. PERCIVALIANA VAR PINK CLOUD X BLOC MARION RYERSON ~ This "Percy" is so 
unusual everyone thinks it is a hybrid. It always produces an abundance of 63= 
inch well held, light pink-lavender flowers. Red spot in lip; gold throat, 
Christmas season. An 8=inch bright rose Marion Ryerson provided the pollen. 
#756 - IC CANTABILE ALBA X Ic BRITANNIA ALBA - Cantabile alba is a 1946 Armroy 
hybrid cross of Le Fascinator-Mossiae and Gigas, FMB. This should result in very 
free-flowering production of fine White-Colored Lip flowers for Spring and June 
wedding season. 
#757 - C. DANIEL RYERSON X BC HARTLAND - The C. Daniel Ryerson used managed to 
outlast two flower shows last February and Merch ond still produce a fine seed pod. 
If that isn't a test of quality, I don't know what is. The six 7-inch dark 
flowers with purple lips and matching petal tips created a lot of attention in 
both shows. Big, round, red=plum Hartland has been described many times.
