Group — Lemoinei 

 Stock from Vaughan 



Bloom — ■ Medium size (8 cm.). Tube straight, stout, very short. Segments unequal, 

 connivent ; the upper with reflexed tips and broader than the reflexed lower segment. 

 The two lower inferior segments reflexed around the basal segment. Stamen fila- 

 ments creamy white; anthers with delicate lavender sutures; the backs being creamy 

 are presented to the front, making them very conspicuous. Perianth blood red 

 (93-111) with an old carmine-red (107-iv) stripe on each of the three lower segments. 

 The stripe terminates in a yellow-green dash. Color is good, deep, and glowing. 

 Blooms do not look up enough, however, though they possess good substance. 

 Childs calls it "an improvement of Brenchleyensis." 



Season — Early ; 69 to 74 days.
