THE ORCHID REVIEN. 33t 
The three oldest plants enumerated are Aérides virens, Odontoglossum 
crispum, and O. X mulus, received in 1874, and the latter came from 
Farnham Castle, so that it has been in cultivation still longer. Cattleya 
Trianz, Aérides radicosum, Masdevallia Harryana, and M. ignea were 
added in 1875, and a year later M. macrura, Lelia Digbyana, Odontoglossum 
coronarium, and Lelio-cattleya x elegans. Plants of no less than forty-five 
species added in 1877 are enumerated as still in the collection, and among 
them we note representatives of six species of Odontoglossum, five of 
Phalznopsis, four each of Coelogyne and Dendrobium, three of Oncidium 
and Aérides, and two of Cecelia, Arachnanthe, and Scuticaria, together with 
Uropedium Lindenii, Sophronitis grandiflora, Anguloa eburnea, Masdevallia 
Davisii, Restrepia maculata, Zygopetalum Mackayi, Angrecum pellucidum, 
Ceeliopsis hyacinthosma, Lzlio-cattleya X exoniensis, &c. These have been 
uninterruptedly cultivated for twenty years, and among those not specially 
dated but said to have been in the collection about this period are the 
following additional ones :—Seven species of Dendrobium, three of Aérides, 
and two of Angreecum, Odontoglossum and Vanda, together with species of 
Stanhopea and Sobralia, Cypripedium Fairrieanum, Oncidium ornithorhyn- 
chum, Nanodes Meduse, Catasetum scurra, Miltonia vexillaria, Lzeliopsis 
domingensis, Platyclinis glumacea, &c. 
Still older, presumably, as their origin is too remote to be traced, are 
Cattleya labiata and Dendrobiums aureum, nobile, and X Dominii, 
while Coelogyne cristata, Thunias Bensone and Marshalliana, various 
Cypripedium species and hybrids too numerous to mention, can only 
be vaguely indicated as having been in the collection for “many years.” 
From 1878 date Cattleya Warscewiczii, Lelias anceps and crispa, 
Angrecum pertusum, Maxillarias venusta and lepida, and Cclogyne 
ocellata, while under date 1877 twenty-nine species are enumerated, 
including Trichopilia coccinea, Masdevallia Veitchiana, Bulbophyllum 
barbigerum, Vanda _ suavis, Saccolabium Blumei, Chysis X Chelsoni, 
Epidendrum vitellinum and three others, three Cirrhopetalums, various 
Lycastes, Cattleya Mossiz and chocoensis, and additional representatives 
of genera previously mentioned. 
Over a score date from 1880, including Sarcochilus Fitzgeraldi, 
Dendrobium bigibbum and Kingianum, Brassavola Perrinii, Brassia 
Giroudiana, Odontoglossum Edwardii, Angraecum Kotschyanum from 
the original importation, Coelogyne Cumingii, Masdevallia tovarensis, 
&c. Similar numbers appear for the two succeeding years, those of 
1881 including Phaius tuberculosus, Lelia Perrinii, Cryptophoranthus 
Dayanus, and Renanthera coccinea. The latter plant is interesting, as it 
was in Morse’s Nursery many years before it came to Burford, and can 
be traced to one of the original importations, presumably about 1816.
