116 THE ORCHID REVIEW. [Juty-AucusT, 1920- 
THE CHELSEA SHOW. 
The Great Spring Show was held at the Royal Hospital, Chelsea, on 
June ist, 2nd, and 3rd, and brought together a magnificent display of 
Orchids, which were staged at the sides of the large central tent. The 
plants were arranged in undulating banks and dells, producing a very 
charming effect, which might have been improved if greater space had been 
allotted to individual groups. The trade made a special effort, the result 
being eight brilliant groups, of excellent quality, three of which gained Gold 
Medals, while a similar award went to a splendid group exhibited by Sir 
Jeremiah Colman, Bart. Certificated Orchids were fewerthan usual. The 
attendance was good, and an early visit was made by Her Majesty the 
Queen, accompanied by Princess Mary and other members of the Royal 
Family.
