at the right season. And an interesting hybrid of it, Epiden- 

 drufn X radico-vitellinum (radicans x vitelHnum), — brightest 

 orange, the lip almost scarlet, with three yellow keels upon 

 the disc ; very pretty and effective. 



Besides, we have here a Spathoglottis hybrid, aureo- 

 Veillardn, Wigans var. (Kimballiana x Veillardii), — most 

 charming of all the charming family. Golden — the sepals 

 tinged, and the petals thickly dotted with crimson ; lip 

 crimson and yellow.
