We are faced with two problems hard to decide. For the private 
grower who wants beautiful sprays in the house, many of the greatest 
flowers are not attractive. Conversely, for the retail florist, a lovely 
arching spray is of no importance; he wants a heavy flower to sell for 
corsage work. Our B-17 Dorchester is perfect for a florist. For the 
house, you might as well have a nice spray of Gladiolii, except that 
they won’t last as long. On the other hand, our Orion < Diana is com- 
pletely beautiful as a cut spray, but commercially, for some reason, is 
not considered tops. 
We offer herewith what we honestly believe are completely out- 
standing Cymbidiums. They comprise a broad selection of color, shape 
and blooming period to fit almost any requirement. They are, unless 
otherwise noted, free blooming, of heavy texture, well set large flowers, 
no twisted petals or sepals, and all well expanded. The colors are clean 
and bright. They all must have “character,” and hold their flowers 
properly on the spikes. 
The prices are also extremely attractive by any comparison with 
flowers of equal quality offered by others. 
Our quotations are for back bulb propagations with a growth of 
at least twelve inches. We reserve the right to ship larger pieces, or 
to hold orders until a growth of this size is achieved, regardless of 
the time interval. 
We are interested in the supplying of lovely flowers to the lover 
of Cymbidiums, and we believe you will be happy with anything that 
you may favor among our offerings. Shipments will be made F. O. B.
