GENERAL EXHIBITS. 
Sir Jeremiah Colman, Bart., Gatton Park (gr. Mr. J. Collier), staged a 
very interesting group, including Cattleya labiata coerulea, C. Beryl 
(Wendlandiana xX MHardyana), a fine purple-flowered hybrid, with two 
yellow eyes on the broad open lip, six plants of C. Alcimeda (Bowringiana 
coerulea X Gaskelliana coerulescens), showing much variation and having 
lilac-coloured sepals and petals, and tne front of the lip slate-bluc, and a 
series of cut blooms of C. Bowringiana and its hybrids that are noted on 
page 266. He also sent an interesting New Guinea Bulbophyllum of the 
Ephippium section, with flowers recalling those of a Masdevallia. 
Col. Stephenson R. Clarke, Borde Hill, Cuckfield (gr. Mr. Gillett), 
sent a small seedling Cattleya, closely resembling C. Bowringiana 
lilacina, having lilac flowers, with a violet-coloured band on the lip. 
Messrs. Charlesworth & Co., Haywards Heath, staged a magnificent 
group, to which a Gold Medal was awarded. The centre consisted of about 
a hundred finely-grown plants of Epidendrum vitellinum autumnale, inter- 
spersed with a few Odontoglossum crispum xanthotes, while behind was a 
series of O. armainvillierense xanthotes, and on either side a number of 
blotched hybrids, with some brilliant Cattleya Fabia, home-raised C. 
Dowiana aurea, and other Cattleyas and Leliocattleyas, noteworthy among 
them being C. Enid Reine Blanche, bearing a spike of four white flowers, 
with a purple veined blotch on the front of the lip. We noted also a few 
well-grown Odontoglossum grande, and several plants of the brilliant Disa 
grandiflora, from a batch of seedlings raised by Messrs. James Veitch & 
Sons. The group was very effectively staged, and was greatly admired.

examples of Cattleya Fabia, Adula, Sylvia, Venus, Moira, Minucia, 
Hardyana, Dupreana, and labiata, Brassocattleya Nestor (Bc. Maroni# X

George Woodhams), and others (Silver Flora Medal). 
Messrs. Sander & Sons, St. Albans, staged a fine group, including 
Cattleya Sylvia Italia (Dowiana aurea x Fabia), a pretty variety with 
primrose yellow sepals and petals, and a carmine purple lip with yellow 
veining, C. Rothschildiana, C. Katie, a beautiful example of C. Fabia alba, 
Leliocattleya Schilleriana Sanderz (C. intermedia alba x L. purpurata 
alba), bearing a spike of five pure white flowers, and various others, with 
the graceful Dendrochilum filiforme, Xylobium squalens, Bulbophyllum 
grandiflorum, and the curious little B. mirum (Silver Flora Medal).
