MANCHESTER AND NORTH OF 

 ENGLAND ORCHID SOCIETY. 



Probably the mention of the plants 

 obtaining first-class certificates of the 

 above important society at the last 

 meeting, will have a certain amount 

 of interest to American orchidists. S. 

 Gratrix of Whalley Range, Manches- 

 ter, showed a cross between Cypripedi- 

 um Lord Ossulton West Point variety 

 and an unknown species or variety. 

 The dorsal sepal, which is erect, has a 

 faint red line running along the cen- 

 tre. The stalk carried two flowers. 

 Mrs. S. Gratrix had a similar award 

 for Cypripedium ■ Mary Gratrix, a 

 seedling from C. Leeanum. H. J. 

 Bromilow of Rainhill, Liverpool, 

 was awarded a F. C. C. tor a seedling 

 Cypripedium named Lord Wolmer = 

 C. Leeanum var. Clinkaberryanum x 

 C. X Euryades. The awards of merit 

 and medals of gold, silver and bronze 

 were quite freely bestowed on collec- 

 tions of plants, chiefly consisting of 

 such species and varieties as Cypri- 

 pediums, Vanda coerulea, Dendrobium 

 bellatulum, Cattleyas, Laelias, Odonto- 

 glossums, etc. F. M.

 speak. His lecture will be illustrated 

 with beautiful lantern slides colored

 will be a rare treat for all who love 

 lilies — and who do&s not love them?
