Elower Worm Small fortune.

Ten thousand dollars is an extraor-
binary price for a single plant; yet it
was paid by English horticulturists
for an orchid raised in America, the
Catteleya gigas alba.
This Catteleya was Powered in 1910,
and exhibited at an orchid show in the
United States, where it was awarded
a gold medal. The plant was found in
1909 in a lot Of other specimens Of
Catteleya gigas. It was only by chance
that the plant was not sold for a dol
lar or two. The only reason was that
after most of its companions had been
disposed Of this one, with some others
that were not In very good condition,
was set aside. Finally all the speci-
mems were potted.
To the great surprise Of the horti-
culturists when, next spring, the plant
came up it was with pure white flow
ers. The plant was sold In London
for perhaps the highest fN1re that an
