THE ORCHID REVIEW. 63 



Odontoglossum X Andersonianum Jupiter, of which a flower has been 

 sent from the collection of De Barri Crawshay, Esq., Rosefield, Sevenoaks, 

 is a very fine form, having broad sepals and petals, very slightly flushed with 

 pink, with a few largish red-brown, somewhat confluent blotches about the 

 centre, and a line at the base of each petal. 



Odontoglossum Pescatorei rosefieldense, from the same collection, has a 

 number of purple spots on the sepals and petals. The plant, which bore a 

 branching raceme of thirty-six flowers, received a Cultural Commendation 

 from the R. H. S. on January 28th. 



A handsome form of the natural hybrid Odontoglossum X loochristiense 

 is sent from the collection of A. Warburton, Esq., Vine House, Haslingden. 

 The ground colour is light yellow, and all the segments are beautifully 

 spotted, while both the lip and column wings show the influence of O. 

 crispum very strongly. 



A correspondent writes that our note on Mendel's paper, though good 

 and cautious, was not very clear, but the said paper wants reading, not 

 twice, but four times before one really gets to the bottom of it. Alas, this 



Cattleya labiata Amesiana is a very pretty light variety sent by Messrs. 

 Hugh Low & Co., Bush Hill Park, Enfield. The flower is nearly white, 

 with a slaty lilac tinge on the front of the lip. The plant is said to have 

 appeared in a recent importation from Pernambuco. In the variety delicata 

 (Orch. Rev., ii., p. 358) the front of the lip is somewhat reticulated with a 

 similar colour.
