CLEMENTINE CHURCHILL 
(Festivity X Lewis Crampton, Lawnacres variety) 
This cross is famous in the orchid world for the many fine forms which have flowered 
from it. Due to its complex breeding and the many parents which have entered 
into its makeup, it is extremely variable. Forms range all the way from reds on the 
order of Atlantis through to forms on the order of Warrior, Greens var., and to 
other forms which have been almost white but with spotting on the dorsal and 
petals. There are a number of excellent color illustrations of this hybrid in the 
January, 1952, anniversary issue of the American Orchid Society Bulletin. 
: Groups ], Il 
CHRYSTIVITY (Festivity X Chrysostom var. Phyllis) 
Most forms of this hybrid have good shape and strong, long stems. Color is quite 
variable ranging from greenish brown with boldly spotted dorsals through to solid 
rich chocolate shades with no spotting on dorsal GROUPS LaLa 
CROMOORE (Croesus X Farnmoore) 
Most forms have large bold flowers in warm browns and greens. The shapely white 
dorsal sepals are generally rather densely dotted with bold reddish purple spots. One 
of the finest seedlings we flowered this year as this catalog goes to press was a form 
of this hybrid which closely resembled Red Night, AM. RHS. Groups I, I, II, IV 
RAVENHUNTER (Mildred Hunter, AM. AOS. X Ravenswing) 
We have found this cross to be a sturdy grower which is currently flowering some 
very fine reds of good shape and clear coloring. Groups I, II, II, IV 
CARDINAL WING (Atlantis, The Cardinal var. X Ravenswing) 
As could be expected some lovely red forms are flowering from this cross. Some of 
the selected forms have commanded top prices. Groupes I, II, III, IV 
FESTIVE HUNTER (Mildred Hunter X Festivity) 
An extremely worthwhile cross coming mostly in the red shades, flowers have red 
An xtremely worthwhile cross coming mostly in the red shades, flowers have red 
petals and pouches. The white dorsal sepals are generally spotted or flamed and 
stained red throughout most of their portions. Some of the best forms have had 
remarkably fine shape and rich coloring. A number of the better forms here have 
been characterized by their full round ventral sepals which have carried the coloring 
of the dorsal sepal to make the whole flower most striking. Groups I, II, Ill 
CLAVAWOL 
(Balaclava, AM. RHS. X Lord Wolmer, FCC. RHS.) 
Bred from two famous parents, this cross is proving its fine parentage. Forms we 
have flowered have had exceptionally fine, round snug shape and fine color harmony. 
The base color of most varieties is light green with light brown overtones. The petals 
and pouch are somewhat darker brown while the dorsals carry a generous number 
of small brown dots throughout their central portions. Groups I, II 
CLAVAHAM (Mrs. James Ingham X Balaclava) 
Most forms have good shape as could be expected from the Balaclava parent while 
Most forms have good shape as could be expected from the Balaclave parent while 
a number have flowers of greenish yellow with light brown overtones; other forms 
shade more to the yellow. Groups I, II, II 
MOLANTIS (Atlantis var. The Cardinal X Lady Mohur) 
Though quite variable this cross has flowered many attractive forms. Some forms 
resemble Warrior with green base color boldly spotted on the dorsal through to 
forms resembling Clementine Churchill. Other forms are very much on the order 
of the Atlantis parent having almost solid red shading. Groups I, II, HI
