white below. This novelty was raised by Mr. Seden in Messrs. Veitch's 

 Nursery, and is named in honour of the late Mrs. Mary Morgan, of New York, 

 an enthusiastic collector of Orchids. There appears to be no fixed period for 

 the flowering, of this hybrid, for we ourselves have had it in bloom nearly 

 every month in the year. This plant should be in every collection. — Garden 

 Jiyhrid.
