PRINCIPAL ORCHID HYBRIDS 



produced the type, but finer varieties were used, and the progeny 

 improved in all its parts. 



L^LIOCATTLEYA CALOGLOSSA. 



Syns. L<elia X caloglossa, Rchb. f. 



Rchb. in Gard. Chron. 1877, vol. vii. p. 139 ; Veitchs' Man. Orch. PI. pt. ii. p. 94. 

 Eaised by John Dominy from Cattleya labiata vera crossed with either 

 Laelia crispa or L. Boothiana (lobata). 



LAELIOCATTLEYA CANHAMIANA. 



Syns. Lalia X Canhamiana, Rchb. f. 



Rchb. in Gard. Chron. 1885, vol. xxiv. p. 6 ; Veitchs' Man. Orch. PI. pt. ii. p. 95 ; Flora 



and Sylva, vol. ii. p. 376. 



Eaised at Chelsea from Laelia purpurata and Cattleya Mossiae, and named 

 after Charles Canham, a well-known grower of a former generation. 



LAELIOCATTLEYA CASSANDEA. 



Syns. Cattleya X Cassandra, Rolfe. 

 Rolfe in Gard. Chron. 1888, vol. iv. p. 596 ; id. 1890, vol. viii. p. 529. 



A hybrid, raised by Seden by crossing Cattleya Loddigesii with the 

 pollen of one of the forms of Laeliocattleya elegans, the latter itself a 

 natural hybrid between Laelia purpurata and Cattleya guttata Leopoldii. 



L^ELIOCATTLEYA CASSIOPE, Eolfe. 



Rolfe in Gard. Chron. 1889, vol. vi. p. 620. 



Eaised from Laelia pumila and Laeliocattleya exoniensis, the fourth of 

 a series of bigeneric hybrids with Laelia pumila as one parent. The seed 

 was sown in 1881, and the first flowers produced in November 1889, 

 proving of little interest. 



LJELIOCATTLEYA CLONIA. 



Gard. Chron. 1894, vol. xvi. p. 511 (Report of R.H.S. Orchid Committee); Orchid 

 Review, 1894, vol. ii. p. 373 ; Diet. Ic. des Orchidees, Laeliocattleya hybr. pi. 12. 



Eaised by Seden from Laeliocattleya elegans Turneri and Cattleya 

 Warscewiczii. The flowers resemble those of the last-named, and the 

 front lobe of the lip is broad, circular and undulated. 



L^LIOCATTLEYA CLONIA, var. SUPEEBA. 



Gard. Chron. 1895, vol. xviii. p. 421, fig.
