Cym. PERI (President Wilson var. Spring Gold X 
Pauwelsii var. Comte d Hemptinne, FCC. RHS.) 
This is a repeat on one of the most successful crosses we can bring to mind. 
President Wilson, Westonbirt var. AM. RHS., which is green shaded bronze, was 
used on the Armacost and Royston Strain. The President Wilson var. Spring Gold 
used here is bred from Alexanderi, Westonbirt var. FCC. RHS. and is a rich 
bright yellow with a dark reddish bar on the lip. We do expect many bright 
yellows with various bronze shadings. We have only a limited number of plants 
to offer of this cross. 
Erica Sander var. Bowman X Sicily, fine green 
We are continually besieged with requests for early blooming seedlings of good 
breeding. With this in mind this cross was made. The Erica Sander variety Bow- 
man that was used is one of the finest forms of this very worthwhile parent that 
we have seen. It bears long graceful sprays of clear bright green flowers of good 
substance with yellow lips spotted crimson. The Sicily used was a clear green 
variety of large size and good substance. The breeding on Sicily is Baldur X Grand 
Monarch. We feel that this cross will prove to be very popular with persons wish- 
ing the early blooming varieties. 
Lowianum, fine green X Irina var. Celeste 
There should be many very worthwhile greens from this cross. Lowianum through- 
out the years has proven to be one of the most satisfactory parents of the species 
in the Genus. Combined with the fine green Irina used here we have hopes for 
some very nice things. The seedlings of this cross are marvelously vigorous. ( Avail- 
able in $5.00 and $7.50 sizes only. ) 
Erica Sander, fine chartreuse X (Adastra X Nerissa 
var. Peridot ) 
Here again we have used (Adastra X Nerissa var. Peridot). Both parents were 
grand clear chartreuse varieties with fine spike habits. This cross may tend to 
be on the early blooming side. The Erica Sander parent has been used many 
times, and is a proven parent. Several well known Erica Sander crosses are 
Heathrow, Bodmin Moor, Dabchick and Andromache. The second parent of this 
cross has an especially good shape and is also an approved stud plant. 
Woodhamsianum concolor X Miretta, Rogers variety 
We hesitate to predict what will be the results of this cross. We do feel that the 
Woodhamsianum parent will produce some worthwhile concolor forms. Consider- 
ing the parents of Miretta (Claudette var. Invicta X Mirabel, AM. RHS.) as well 
as the fact that there are some very worthwhile Miretta’s we are reasonably con- 
fident as to the outcome. Greens and yellows are expected. 
Blue Smoke var. Calumet X Claudona, Rogers var. 
We had to be careful in describing this cross not to use too many superlatives, 
as two remarkably fine parents were used. The bloodline of both parents is very 
distinguished. We flowered the first few seedlings from Blue Smoke this year 
and the results were very good greens. The breeding on Claudona is Claudette, 
var. Invicta X Cremona var. Black Prince, FCC. RHS. The form of Claudona used 
in this cross is perhaps the darkest green we have ever seen. The lip is very 
heavily marked on its basal portions with darkest maroon red. This plant was 
judged to be the best green Cymbidium in the 1950 Santa Barbara Cymbidium 
Show. The growth of these seedlings is very strong and we are confident of many 
very worthwhile greens.
