NTEREST in Cymbidium orchids continues to 
grow. Here in Southern California they are 
ideal subjects for outdoor culture and during 
the early spring there is no better subject for adding color to the 
garden. In other parts of the country where protection from frost 
is required, they are equally rewarding when they can be given ccol 
indoor conditions during the cold season. The flowers last from 
four to six weeks on the plant — a return out of all proportion to 
the small amount of work involved; and a glance at the brief de- 
scriptions further on in this book will give an idea of the wide 
color range. 
We have Cymbidium plants to suit the needs of every type of 
Cymbidium grower from the beginner with absolutely no growing 
exper‘ence to the collector of long standing and it is our pleasure 
to give all the cultural help we possibly can where this is desired. 
For convenience we have divided the list into three sections. 
The “Garden Variety” section offers well established plants in pots 
which will give charming flowers this coming season without great 
outlay in either money or effort. This is the section we especially 
recommend for a start in Cymbidium growing. 
The items in the two sections which follow are propagations 
of fine cut flower varieties up to the best exhibition types. They 
are briefly described and in all cases we shall be pleased to furnish 
any further information desired. 
It is with pleasure we offer this Cymbidium List to our valued 
clientele of the past and to those of more recent interest in Cym- 
bidiums whom we hope to add to our list of satisfied customers 
as time goes on.
