Cleo's Melody and Dutchman's Delight are the parents for Beverly Smith. A small standard with very round, full shape. Photo was featured in the Orchid Review many years ago as one of Dean Roesler's eye catching orchids at the Ararat National Cymbidium show. 'High Clouds' is also a white but smaller in size. For showbench shape, white intermediates and small standards this is a cross worthy of trying. August / September flowering.

FESTIVAL 'HIGH CLOUDS' x CLEO'S MELODY 'FREAKOUT'

A,B,C,D

524

A cross made to produce peloric types with the lip markings on the sepals. Festival is an intermediate white with genes from Harry Sakell and Winter Wonder. Expect white pelorics, small standards in size plus some intermediates. 50 % of the progeny are expected to be pelorics.

Festival 'Rainbow Drops' x Royal 'White Lace'

A,B

526

Harry Sakell and Winter Wonder are the parents of Festival. An intermediate white with a tinge of pink. 'White Lace' is a pristine white, small standard in size with a contrasting labellum being nearly black from its heavy near black markings. Aim of the cross was to produce white intermediates with labellums being heavily barred with nearly black. July / August flowering.

FIFI 'HARRY' 4N x devonianum

A,B

527

By introducing Cym devonianum genes the large plant size of Fifi will be reduced. Long pendulous racemes will still be produced with flower counts of thirty plus. Cream colours overlaid with pink, being+D382 the dominate colour with a dark blotched labellum. Flowering time of September/ October. Miniatures and intermediates.

FIFI 'HARRY' 4N x insigne 'ALBA'

C,D

528

A remake of a cross that produced very long pendulous racemes of two metres in length. This remake has been done with the alba form of the Cym insigne so flower colour wil be cleaner. Expect green shades to predominate. September/ October flowering intermediates.

FIFI 'HARRY' 4N x MEM ANDREW JOHNSTON 'WHITE CRYSTAL'

A,B,C,D

FIFI 'HARRY' 4N x OLYMILUM 'WHITE ELF' 4N

A,B,C,D

530

Olymilum has lots of good properties which it passes through to its progeny. It has reasonably small plant growth, free flowering properties and passes on robustness to its progeny. It is not quite a white pure colour and therefore progeny normally have spotted labellums. Expect pendulous racemes of green with some spotting in the labellum. September flowering.

FIFI 'HARRY' 4N x SLEEPING BEAUTY 'SARAH JEAN'

A,B,C,D

531

Sleeping Beauty 'Sarah Jean' is a famous parent of the Sarah Jean cross. Plant size is small. Expect pure colours in the green to off white shades of the intermediate size. Sarah Jean is a productive orchid so will reduce the time for many of the plants of this cross to flower. September pendulous.
