AUGUST SPECIAL NUMBER FIVE 
("Amnesia Victims" - Established Back Divisions in 5-inch Pots.) 
No matter how careful we are, some plants lose their identification. One of my good 
customers, who loves a bargain, always refers to these "lost tag Orchids" as AMNESIA 
VICTIMS. There must be a trace of gambling instinct in her, for she admits she just 
can't resist the intriguing possibility of "hitting the jack pot" and getting an out- 
standing hybrid at the "grab bag" prices And she quite often does$ 
Remember, these are back divisionse That means they will not look as pretty as the 
plants offered in Special #4, for a couple of the back bulbs will have lost their 
leavese But each division will have at least four good, plump bulbse Each will have 
at least one new lead, well startede On some, the new lead will be nearly mature, and 
already have a sheathe 
While I can't guarantee the first sheath on a back division will bloom, the sturdiness 
of these plants, and past experience with similar ones, tells me most of them will. 
In which case, you won't need to wait two years to learn how good your bargain is!
