102 THE ORCHID REVIEW. |May, 1917+ 
good fortune to see other seedlings from the same batch (O.R., 1916, p. 94), 
confirming the origin of the original plant. 
A month later a beautiful hybrid from C. insigne was exhibited at a 
meeting of the R.H.S., by Messrs. Th. Pauwels & Cie., Meirelbeke, Ghent, 
and received an Award of Merit under the name of C. Lawrenceanum 
(insigne X Lowianum concolor). It had cream-coloured sepals and petals, 
flushed with rose at the margin, and the lip with some reddish rose 
suffusion in front and a few small spots on the side lobes (O.R., IgII, 
p. 87). This hybrid afterwards seems to have received the name of C. 
Pauwelsii, for in March, 1912, it received an Award of Merit from the 
Manchester Orchid Society under this name, and subsequently a First-class 
Certificate, when exhibited by Col. John Rutherford, M.P. (O.R., 1912, 
pp. 158, 187). 
In March following two other hybrids of C. insigne appeared, each of 
them receiving an Award of Merit from the R.H.S. (O.R., 1911, p. 179). 
These were C. Alexanderi (Veitchii x insigne), from Lt.-Col. Sir George 
L. Holford, K.C.V.O., and C. Gottianum (eburneum x insigne), from 
Messrs. Sander & Sons. The first-named is a secondary hybrid, and has 
since proved to be extremely variable, yielding some very pretty light 
yellow and rosy forms, in addition to those with a white ground colour as 
in the original. 
In 1912 two handsome additions appeared. Cymbidium Schlegelii 
(insigne X Wiganianum) flowered with Messrs. J. & A. McBean, Cooks- 
bridge, in February, and received an Award of Merit from the R.H.S. 
(O.R., 1912, p. 86), and in the following October they also flowered C- 
Doris (Tracyanum  X insigne), a particularly fine thing, which received a 
First-class Certificate (O.R., 1912, p. 344). 
In March, 1913,. Cymbidium J. Davis was exhibited by J. Gurney 
Fowler, Esq., at a meeting of the R.H.S., and received an Award of Merit 
(O.K., 1913, p. 93), but as the parentage was given as C. Schrcederi X 
insigne it is a variety of the earlier C. glebelandense; indeed, we believe it 
was a seedling out of the same batch. 
In 1914 there were several accessions to the list, all of which were 
exhibited at meetings of the R.H.S. First came C. Coningsbyanum 
(grandifiorum X insigne), from the collection of G. Hamilton Smith, Esq-, 
which received an Award of Merit from the R.H.S. on January 13th (0.R., 
IgI4, p. 58). On February 24th a hybrid called C. Iona, with the same 
parentage, was exhibited by Messrs. Armstrong & Brown (O.R., 1914, p- 86)» 
which thus becomes a synonym. On February roth Cymbidium Dryad 
(insigne x Parishii Sander) was exhibited by Lt.-Col. Sir George L- 
Holford, K.C.V.O., and was described as a large and beautiful hybrid, 
having blush white sepals and p2tals, and numerous large red-purple spots
