ORCHIDS FOR FASCINATION 
The lure of the Orchid goes beyond the grace and beauty of 
the blossoms. The idea of exotic rarity is a part of it, and the 
long-keeping blooms, but more than anything else, it can be 
the sense of achievement in having grown such loveliness to 
full perfection. The growing is not too difficult, a little green- 
house may help, but many are growing Orchids on enclosed 
porches, or just in a window. We suggest, though, one of the 
several good Orchid books offered below.

mostly give bloom within the year under right conditions, but 
since we have no control over the handling of the plants after 
the purchaser has received them, we cannot guarantee bloom.
