Even in August, PHALAENOPSIS seedlings ava make a fast-selling iaiegaint, $ 
I'll be surprised if I have any of these left by the end of June! If you Sane 
own any of these lovely, graceful, long lasting "Moth Orchids", stop now and 
read Page N in your folder. 
Has anyone told you "Orchids are ugly when they're not in bloom"? 
He was not talking about a Phalaenopsis plant! The smooth, broad, green leaves 
are almost as pretty as the cascading sprays of mothlike flowers. They outgrow 
most other Orchids and the blooms outlast most other blooms. When a spray finally 
does start to fade, cut it, but not too close to plant and it will branch and 
bloom again. Don't keep doing that all year, though, or you will wear out the 
plant! 
From flask to first bloom in thirty-six months is not at all unusual for well 
grown Phalaenopsis (warmth, water and food, but not too much sun, are required). 
From community pots, they can be bloomed in 24 months with good care. 
THE FOLLOWING FOUR WHITE PHALAENOPSIS HYBRIDS ARE IN 23~-INCH POTS 
(Grown as instructed on Page N, they should bloom next Spring.) 
#Ph=5 PHALAENOPSIS GRACE PALM (Doris X Winged Victory) = Nice, round, 
een Sans ee 
heavy—textured White blooms. 
#Ph-6 P. DORIS X BENSON 'S #17 - Somewhat more oval in shape but excellent 
form and texture. Semiecircle of butter yellow in throat. 
qeh-7 P. FIELD'S #407 X P. DORIS - Another Benson hybrid, crossed with 
Doris, made Field's #407. Equally good in form end crisp whiteness. 
#Ph-8 P. FIELD'S #407 X P. BLIZZARD - Blizzard is a French hybrid that has 
been making a name for itself since 1945, when it was registered.
