HIS beautiful albino has an interesting history. There is a plant of 
the rare Miltonia Warscewiczli xanthina in the collection of O. O. 
Wrigley, Esq., Bridge Hall, Bury, and this was crossed with the pollen of 
a fine Odontoglossum armainvillierense xanthotes supplied by Messrs. 
Charlesworth & Co., Haywards Heath. The result was a good capsule of

seeds, which were germinated by Messrs. Charlesworth, and the resulting 
seedlings divided between the two establishments. An inflorescence was 
sent to us by Mr. Wrigley in August, 1914, and about two months later 
Messrs. Charlesworth received an Award of Merit from the R.H.S. for a 
fine plant (O.R., xxii. pp. 286, 337). A flower from the latter is shown in 
the annexed figure, and it will be seen that the albinism of the parents has 
been retained, and combined largely with the Miltonia shape, a character 
which applies to the whole of the seedlings. The ground colour of the 
flower may be described as cream white, with bars of yellow on the sepals 
and petals, and a zone of the same colour on the lip, in front of the yellow 
crest. Werecently saw two fine plants in bloom with Messrs. Charlesworth.
