APRIL, 1915.] THE ORCHID REVIEW. 127 
because of its habit of blooming in April it fails to take advantage of the 
mid-winter demand. 
Many other things are grown besides Orchids, and a big retail business 
is done direct from the greenhouses, though much of the product finds an 
outlet in the wholesale markets in Boston.

HE following hybrids have been forwarded to us for registration :— 
BRASSOCATLEHLIA FREDA (Leliocattleya Elinor x Brassocattleya

reddish veining in the throat. Raised in the collection of ‘Lieut.-Col. 
Sir George L. Holford, K.C.V.O., Westonbirt, Tetbury, by Mr. H. G. 
Alexander. 
BRASSOCATLELIA GOLDEN-Horn (Brassocattleya Rowena X Léeelio- 
cattleya Goldcrest).—A beautiful bright yellow flower, of moderate size, 
with a neatly-fringed lip, which is of deeper yellow in the throat. Raised 
in the collection of Sir George L. Holford. 
BRASSOCATTLEYA GRISELDA (Cattleya Rothschildiana x Brassocattleya 
Leemaniz).—A very large and beautiful hybrid, with broad, light mauve- 
purple sepals and petals, and the well-fringed lip of similar colour, with a 
large amount of yellow in the throat. Raised in the collection of Sir George 
L. Holford. 
L&LIOCATTLEYA TITANIA (Cattleya Schroedere X Leeliocattleya 
Daffodil).—A very neat little flower, most like a reduced C.'Schroedere 
in general character, and having broad lilac blush sepals and petals, and a 
very large amount of deep orange in the throat of the lip. Raised in the 
collection of Sir George L. Holford. 
L&LIOCATTLEYA ZARA (Cattleya Schroedere X ie ine Ariel).— 
A very promising hybrid, of moderate size, with flowers of good shape, the 
sepals and petals light mauve-purple, and the lip much darker in front, 
with some yellow in the throat. It is remarkable that the yellow of the 
pollen parent is suppressed. Raised in the collection of Sir GL. Holford. 
L&LIOCATTLEYA Evansia (Lelia purpurata X Cattleya’ amethysto- 
glossa).—A very charming hybrid, which combines well the qualities of two 
parents. The flowers are fairly intermediate in shape, and have blush-white 
sepals and petals, and a somewhat three-lobed lip, with the front lobe and 
apex of the side lobes rich purple. Raised in the collection of W. Evans, 
Esq., J.P., Knighton Lodge, Leicester, by Mr. T. Cook. It is a quite 
parallel hybrid to Lzliocattleya Schilleriana, and of considerable promise.
