he exhibited regularly at the meetings of the ORCHIDEENNE, and the hybrids 
which he so judiciously produced, and of which the present is the best. His 
Orchids were the objects of his constant preoccupation, and when the tidings of 
his death so unexpectedly arrived, the same evening as the grand Exhibition in 
the month of May, he had sent some of his most beautiful plants in flower, 
notably certain Cypripediums, several Cattleyas, Odontoglossums, etc., to which 
a special prize (Object of Art) was awarded by the jury. 
The name of M. J. Mozns is already commemorated by the superb variety 
of Cypripedium Argus, which is dedicated to him. It will not be less brilliantly 
borne by the new hybrid which we figure to-day, and which marks a decisive 
stage in the history of Orchid hybridisation.
