C. LAWRENCEANUM COLORATUM, Bchh. /.— " This is very distinct, by 

 its median sepal not being very retuse, but very markedly acute. The very 

 broad dark nerves have the interstices tinted with light mauve colour, and 

 the warts on the petals are numerous and strong" (H. G. Reichenbach, in 

 Gardeners' Chronicle, 3rd sor., 1887, ii. p. 272). 



C. LAWRENCEANUM HYEANUM, Echh. /.—This handsome variety was 

 named in honour of M. Jules Hye, of Ghent. It is a beautiful albino, having the 

 dorsal sepal of the purest snow-white, veined with light green ; petals also 

 yellowish-green, with deeper green veins ; pouch bright green, netted with 

 veins of a deeper hue. A superb variation from the normal plant. — Borneo.

C. LEEANUM, Veiteli.—A. well-marked hybrid between G. Spicerianum and 

 G. iw-igne Maulei. In its neat habit of growth, and in various other points^, 

 it takes most after G. Spicerianum. It has green leaves, resembling those of'' 

 that species, and rather taller scapes, bearing the handsome flowers, which, 

 have the dorsal sepal broadly oval, flat, pure white, similar in form to-. 

 (J. insigne Maulei, but having a distinct broad dotted line down its centre, 

 and the base emerald-green, with radiathig spots of mauve colour running 

 upwards into the white part ; the petals are similar to G. insigne Maulei, and 

 the lip a shining brownish-red. This is a very distinct and desirable plants, 

 and was raised by Mr. Seden, and exhibited by Messrs. Veitch & Sons, for the 

 first time, in January, 1884. Its name commemorates W. Lee, Esq., of 

 Downside, one of our most zealous cultivators of Orchids. Blooms in Decern- - 

 ber and January. — Garden hybrid.

C. LEEANUM BIFLORUM, N. E. Brown.— k. variety which appears to differ 

 only in usually producing two flowers on a scape. 



C. LEEANUM ENGELHARDTAE, ifor/. — A cross between a variety of G.insigne, 

 probably Maulei, and G. Spicerianum. It differs from G. Leeanum in having the 

 petals of a richer yellow and the veins of carmine being interrupted, which gives 

 them the appearance of lines of dots. It is named in honour of Madame 

 Constantin d'Engelhardt, the wife of one of the principal Orchidophiles of 

 Russia. — Garden hybrid.
