The short blooming season which began three weeks ago will continue for two more, according to Rudolph Boysen, park superintendent. Suspended from tall beams of the 50 by 60 foot structure are great peat mossed hanging baskets of these hybrids; their vivid opalescent blooms, dramatic splashes contrasting with the warm toned sawdust under foot and natural surroundings. Epiphyllum Phyllocactus have been raised here for approximately 16 years. The park boasts now of one of the most representative collections of the rare hybrids existing. Copper, violet, red salmon, rose, bright pink and pastel pink are among the other colors displayed. Until a few years ago, the phyllocactus were regarded only as collectors' items. Now gaining in popularity, they are grown by three large nurseries in the Los Angeles area. Instrumental in this growth of popularity and in developing new beautiful hybrids, are Steele, Dr. Robert W. Poindexter (deceased) and Mrs. Theresa Monmonier. Nurserymen are calling it the orchid cactus now. An air of expectancy prevails in the great lath house as newcomer, Ben's Laura, donated by Ben Frazee, is about to bloom. It is thought to be a double white. If it fulfills its promise, it will be the first known created. Ranging from six to eight inches in size, many of the hybrids' blossoms feature purple in the center and along the edges of the petals. Some flowers are lacy, others symmetrical such as the long-trumpeted Julius Schlumberger or the perfectly shaped Deliciosat. All have gold stamen, pestilare are white.

It has small shell-pink blossoms. Simultaneously bursting into bloom, were the amber-flowering and the Gloria Conway Giant, which blend vibrant red and orchid tones; the Padre Elegans with big loose-petaled flowers of clear pink, and the more delicate Pink Pearl. Eight-inch flowered Bliss showed pale peach blooms a little later. Warm Chinese red tones were displayed in the great broad loose petaled Amber Queen.
