LISTING OF "UNUSUALS" = #111 
The increasing demand for something different prompts us to list the 
"Unusuals". These show great promise of beauty and wonderful color 
Many will have tremendous substance and excellent keeping qualities 
We feel their greatest appeal, 
however, will be to those who wish to work further with many of these new things 
to develop further "Unusuals'.

C. INTERMEDIA AQUINII X C. SNOWDEN 1 3/\" 
This should make very imbteresting results. It Qt 
would be difficult to foretell if Intermedia 
Aquinii will be dominant in its color pattern 
characteristics but the possibility of flowering 
a glorified Aquinii is a pleasant thoughte 
C. ACLANDIAE X C. DOWIANA (C. PRINCESS CLEMENTINE) 1 3/)" 
This cross was origina made by the Laeken Cm 
Gardens back in 1902. At that time it was con- 
Sidered an interesting variatione Today we do not 
think of size as a major attribute and do expect 
some very unusual color combinations from this cross 
mainly because of the straw to tan colorings of the 
Aclandiae and its unusual substancee 
Le PURPURATA X Le XANTHINA 1 3/\" 
In interesting cross from which we will probably 
get some yellow to bronze sepal and petal typese 
C. ACLANDIAE X C. GRANULOSA VAR. SCHOFIELDIANA 1 3/h" 
Some very unusual colors in yellows, bronze, browns 
and shadings of green should result from this crosse 
Flowers should be of good size as Granulosa vare 
Schofieldiana measures about ]\" acrosse 
C. ILEOPOLDI X CG. DOWIANA (C. CHAMBERLAINIANA) 1 3/)" 
Originated for the first time Veitch in 1881. 
Ce Leopoldi is considered a variety of Ce Guttata 
and results should be very interesting as this 
parent is so free flowering, making up spikes with 
as many as 15 flowers each, of good size and tre- 
mendous substanceée 
C. GUITATA X Ls TENEBROSA 1 3/q" 
We fecl this cross will be spectacular from a 21 
standpoint of floriferousness, substance. and oan 
and coloringse Expect medium size flowers with 3} ul 
Guttata influence predominating and good growing 
qualities. 
C. INTERMEDIA ALBA 1 3/k" 
Two fine types of Intermedia alba were usede Our 2 "! 
reason for this cross being listed is the extreme 
scarcity of Ce Intermedia aiba and the possibility 
of further work with ite Always attracta attention 
and is beautiful in flower, with glistening white 
flowers, pure white with no color in the lipe 
Ce AMETHYSTOGLOSSA (Brazil) 1 3/\" 
A selfed fine forme On mature plants the pseudo~ 
bulbs are two to three feet highe Flowers up to 
l"" and as many as 15 to a steme Sepals and petals 
bright rose=purple spotted with a reddish=purple 
lip. Very showy and of long=lasting qualities. 
C. BARBARA BILLINGSLEY x Le HARPOPHYLLA 1 3/)" 
As far as we have been able to ascertain, Laelia Qu 
Harpophylla has never been crossed on a breeding 
white beforée This cross should result in some 
very beautiful forms of small flowers in the orange 
shade range, and have more or less upright, spray 
type flower spikes as in Harpophylla, with its free 
flowering tendencies. Great potentials for continued 
breedinge Should flower in the winter and spring seasone
