78 THE ORCHID REVIEW. [May-JUNE, 1920. 
atthe warm end of the Cool house. Plants of O. Rossii, Cervantesii, 
Humeanum, and (Erstedii, that recently passed out of flower, should be 
suspended close to the roof-glass, and be afforded just enough water to 
prevent the pseudobulbs from shrivelling. An excess of water whilst at 
rest will cause the roots to decay. When new growth commences any 
necessary repotting can be done. Odontoglossum grande, having had a 
good rest, is now about to push new growth, and may have attention just 
as the young roots show at the base of the growths. As this plant makes 
thick fleshy roots, the material should be used in as rough pieces as possible, 
and be made moderately firm. 
GENERAL REMARKS.—Before the issue of another number of the Orchid 
Review many of us will again make the journey to the Chelsea Show, where 
we hope to meet many continental friends, and take part in what we hope 
may again be an annual reunion of worshippers of the fair goddess Flora. 
HE Massachusetts Horticultural Society held a Show of Orchids and 
Spring plants at the Horticultural Hall, Boston, U.S.A., from 
March 24th to 28th last, which the American Florist of April 3rd reports 
was a brilliant achievement, both culturally and for artistic arrangement. 
Orchids were the predominating feature, and the exhibits of A. C. Burrage, 
of Pride’s Crossing, Mass., were lavish in variety, splendidly grown and 
staged. They included many rare species and varieties, and a considerable 
number were arranged on trunks of trees in imitation of their native 
conditious. Other private growers contributed good though less com- 
prehensive exhibits, and the commercial section showed up well, specially 
noteworthy being the extensive displays of the Julius Roehrs Co., of 
Rutherford, N.J.
