Cymbidium 
The following is a short list of inexpensive 
varieties and species. They are three bulb divi- 
sions from very old plants that have been bloom- 
ing for years, and are considered to be of a 
size to continue to flower. 
Of other varieties, we have too many to list. 
If you are interested in making a collection and 
will leave the selection to us we can supply 
many fine varieties from $7.50 to $15.00 each, 
or if you do not care to spend that much money 
but are willing to wait a few years we can sup- 
ply good backbulbs from $1.00 to $3.00 each. 
In potting use any loose, well drained compost, 
and keep the upper three-fourths of the pseudo- 
bulbs and backbulbs above the soil. Provide drain- 
age by filling the lower one-fourth of the pot 
with rocks, and use the smallest possible pot that 
can be used. Oversize pot is death to these plants. 
They must be under-potted. 
Plants are sent out anytime, 
packed in damp moss.

Cymbidium Seedlings 
We are proud to present for your selection the 
following list of fine Cymbidium seedlings. All 
are from selected parentage of outstanding qual- 
ity and merit, and the seedlings should produce a 
very high percentage of top size flowers of fine 
form and heavy texture. It is practically impos- 
sible to predict the eventual color of the flowers 
on these complex crosses, but we are mentioning 
the colors of the parents used for your guidance. 
For convenience we are listing only one size 
plant. These are plants of single growth with 
leaves of over eight inches in height and out of 
three-inch pots. One or two crosses may have 
shorter leaves since these varieties naturally make 
shorter leaves, and by the same token many will 
be much longer than that. At any rate they will 
be good sized plants. Larger plants will be sup- 
plied for an additional 50%. Six plants of the 
same cross will be sold for the price of five 
plants. You may order the following by number:
