SupremBer, 1922] THE ORCHID REVIEW: | sie 
Dendrobium Phalaenopsis Schréderianum, and pretty : sprays of 
Odontoglossum. 
In the class for three Bouquets, Mr. Vickers carried off the first prize 
for attractive designs entirely composed of Orchids. Mrs. J. Nixon, of 
Alderley Edge, came second, the components of her exhibit being very 
similar to the preceding. A small Gold Medal was awarded to Messrs. 
Stuart Low & Co., for a group of Carnations and some fine varieties of 
Cattleya Warscewiczii, hybrid Cattleyas, Aérides odoratum _ virens, 
Dendrobium formosum giganteum, etc. Messrs. Sanders, St Albans, 
received a similar award for a pretty group of Orchids. Included in it 
were two richly coloured’ forms of Stanhopea tigrina, and a third plant, 
with a. six-flowered. inflorescence, apparently allied to S. Shuttleworthii. 
The curious shape and the mode of flowering of these plants’ elicited many 
remarks from the visitors. Cattleya Hardyana regalis, C. Thurgoodiana, 
C. triumphans, Lc. fulvescens, Vanda ceerulea and Cypripedium Maudie 
were effectively displayed in this group. A novelty was seen in Cattleya 
Shrewsbury (Undine x Juliettiz), white, with a deeply frilled lip, and 
waved sepals and petals. 
In the groups of miscellaneous and fine foliage plants occupying 250 sq. 
ft., Messrs. Cypher & Sons, Cheltenham, were first. They showed 
Cypripedium Rossettii giganteum, various hybrids of C. Rothschildianum, 
numerous Lzliocattleyas, Anguloa eburnea, Ccelogyne Mooreana and 
Odontoglossums. Sir George Kendrick, of Edgbaston, was second with an 
admirable group, in which Oncidium flexuosum, a very fine example of 
Dendrobium superbiens, Cattleya Warscewiczii in variety, Epidendrum 
vitellinum, and Dendrobium Gibsonii were in fine form. The charming 
white Brassavola cordata, which evidently may be relied upon to flower 
year after year, was represented by several well-flowered examples. 
W.-R: Manning, Esq., of Dudley, was third with a very fine group, itt 
which Orchids were not quite as numerous as in the others, but Lelia 
crispa, Cattleya Warscewiczii and Wanda ccerulea were well placed. 
Orchids in miscellaneous groups are possibly shown to better advantage 
than when staged by themselves. The clear outlines and the colouring ue 
their flowers are then better contrasted against the varied shapes and 
colours of foliage plants. Certainly, as used in these miscellaneous groups, 
the Orchids seem to add the finishing touch. E.C. 
CORYCIUM CRISPUM.—A recent number of The Flowering Plants of South 
Africa (vol. II., pt. vii.) contains a coloured plate of Corycium crispum, 
which is the first member of the Orchidacez to appear In this work. This 
Orchid, originally described by Schwartz as long ago as 1800, belongs to 
the large group of terrestrial kinds which are characteristic of the South
