staged by Mr. Dolansky in his first prize group. These were interspersed 
with Phalznopsis and Dendrobium Phalzenopsis. J. T. Butterworth had

strongly.”

L#LIOCATTLEYA CHAMBERLAINIANA.—Some time ago a cross was made 
in the collection of the late Rt. Hon. Joseph Chamberlain, M.P., between 
Leliocattleya Amelia and L.-c. elegans Turneri, and a flower of one of 
the seedlings has now been sent to Kew by Mr. Austen Chamberlain, M.P., 
with the request that, if new, the name of his father should be associated 
with it. Four species are involved in its ancestry, namely, Cattleya 
intermedia, C. Leopoldii, Lelia purpurata, and L. cinnabarina, and of 
these the latter has exerted a greatly preponderating influence in the 
seedling which has now bloomed, for the flower is of a shade of reddish 
‘cinnabar-orange, with the front of the somewhat crisped lip ruby-purple. 
Other seedlings may, of course, show the influence of the other species more 
strongly. The plant has at present produced an inflorescence of four 
flowers, and has not reached its full development. Judging from its 
composition the hybrid should be of a free-growing and floriferous 
character. It is curious to note that the crossing of Cattleya intricata 
with Lzlia Latona would yield a hybrid of identical specific composition, 
as also would the crossing of Lzliocattleya Schilleriana with a hybrid 
between Cattleya Leopoldii and Lelia cinnabarina.
