collection were such gems as Cymbidium Pauwelsii and C. insigne,.

Cypripedium Maudiz variety non pilus ultra, Laliocattleya Dominiana, 
Odontoglossum eximium, O. X Jasper, O. ardentissimum and O. Queen 
of Gatton. E. B. Dane showed a beautiful plant of Odontioda Bradshawiz, 
Clement Moore had many fine things, such as a pure white Brassocattleya

for a collection staged for effect, also for plants and flowers in nine other 
classes, one cf them being for 25 vases of cut flowers arranged for effect,

first and two second prizes, W. A. Manda, South Orange, New Jersey, four 
firsts and ten seconds, and Lager & Hurrell, Summit, New Jersey, two
