C. PRESIDENT POINCARE 1%” 
(C. Dupreana, Westonbirt variety X C. Peetersii) ne 
Here again we have a cross that is apt to be quite a spectacular 
producer of large dark flowers for the cut flower market. Both parents 
are noted for their vigor, free flowering qualities and other desirable 
features. The season is expected to run from late spring through 
summer. 
LC. GITCHE MANITO, VAR. SAN GABRIEL 134” 
X C. AMABILIS, FINE VARIETY 2e 
For years we have considered the Le. Gitche Manito parent as being 
close to perfection in a Cattleya hybrid. The C. Amabilis parent is 
noted for its high flower quality, remarkable vigor and extreme free 
flowering qualities. There are sure to be many fine purple types show 
up in this cross. The season will be fall. 
C. EDITHIAE, FINE VARIETY ei 
X C. BARBARA BILLINGSLEY, FINE VARIETY Der 
A check through Sanders list of Orchid Hybrids will show many fine 
things bred from Edithiae. Perhaps the best known of Edithiae hy- 
brids are C. Bow Bells, C. Marion Davies, C. Helen P. Dane and C. 
Mlle. Louise Pauwels. C. Barbara Billingsley is a new hybrid that 
within the last several years has become very popular as a fine 
winter white. Some extremely worthwhile whites to flower through- 
out the winter can be expected from this cross. 
S-100 C. MINA, VERY LARGE X Was 
C. BARBARA BILLINGSLEY 
Mina is noted for its exceptional size, while C. Barbara Billingsley 
is famous as a fine winter white. We cannot be sure of season here, 
but can fully expect good quality whites. 
S-103 C. TRIANAE ALBA, BROOMHILL VAR. X C. JOYCE 13%” 
HANNINGTON, GOLD MEDAL VARIETY wee 
C. Joyce Hannington is considered by many to be one of the finest 
white Cattleyas ever bred. Crossed with C. Trianae alba, Broomhill 
variety, we have every reason to expect an outstanding white. Due 
to the C. Joyce Hannington parent the season could be expected to 
run from late fall through winter. 
S-110 C. PRESIDENT WILSON (C. Fabia, variety Congo 134" 
X C. Labiata, fine variety) 
We are continually beset with requests for crosses that will bear 
flowers of very dark reddish purple coloring. The object of making 
this cross was to meet that demand. The C. Fabia, var. Congo, 
used is the darkest form of this noted cross we have seen. The 
C. labiata used is from a famous strain of home raised seedlings. 
Some of the finer forms of this cross are sure to command top prices. 
The season will be primarily October.
