INTRODUCTION 
Dear Customer: 
For nearly twelve years our Epiphyllum plants have been ever more widely dis- 
tributed to flower lovers all over the United States, to Canada, Central and South 
America, so we feel that an introduction in words is hardly necessary. The plants have 
introduced themselves and made loyal and enthusiastic friends wherever they have 
gone. They appeal to beginners and to advanced horticulturists since they combine 
ease of culture together with exciting possibilities in the field of hybridization. They 
cost very little to begin with, and adapt themselves to sheltered out-of-door conditions 
in mild climates, or to hot-houses and conservatory culture in zero weather. They can 
be grown on trellises, or used in hanging baskets according to types, but in every 
case flowering freely and with color combinations not found in any other class of plants. 
The form both of plant growth and flower differ widely, so that every taste can 
be suited, and to the collector these plants offer an exceptionally varied field. 
It is important to remember that although these plants belong to the Cactus fam- 
ily, their cultural needs resemble more nearly those of Begonia plants than those of 
the spiny desert types—they need filtered light, adequate moisture and rich nutriment 
to grow strong and put forth good crops of rich and prolific flowers.
