Oncidium Papii.io. There are several varieties of this singular Butterfly 

 flower. Messrs. Rollisson's possess one very much superior to any other we have 

 noticed. The colour* are much deeper and very distinct ; in contrast with the 

 older varieties this is much superior. 



Schomburgkia undbi.ata. In Rlrs. Lawrence's collection at Ealing Park, 

 and at Mr. Ruckei's. It very much resembles lhe S. crispa in general features, 

 (see description above) but the flowers are much larger and of deeper colours; 

 the lip has a pretty purple-violet upon it. 



Jt Mr. Low's, of Clapton, Nursery. 



Camellia Saccoi. — The flowers are of a beautiful pink, slightly and hand- 

 somely spotted with deeper coloured spots. The flower is double, the petals very 

 perfectly arranged, round, and thick in substance. It is of first-rate merit, and 

 well deserves to be in every collection. Mr. Low obtained it, along with others, 

 from the Continent. We have not seen it in any other of the London col- 

 lections, but, if we mistake not, Mr, Low has plants of it for sale.
