172 THE ORCHID REVIEW. 
Near the Salween River, Vanda Parishii typical is found. 
East of the Salween River occurs Dendrobium fimbriatum oculatum, 
D. Hildebrandii, D. nobile, and D. velutinum. 
Dendrobium Ccelogyne and D. senile are found, perhaps 100 miles south 
of Lake Inle, in the direction of the Moulmein district. 
CATTLEYA CITRINA AURANTIACA. 
We have received a magnificent two-flowered raceme of this fine variety 
of Cattleya citrina from R. Brooman White, Esq., of Arddarroch, the lip 
of one flower measuring 3} inches long, and the petals 1g inches broad. 
Mr. G. Roberts, Mr. White’s gardener, states that it grows very well in pans 
in the Intermediate house. We think we have never seen it equalled, 
certainly not surpassed. The history of this fine variety was given at page 
194 of our last volume, so we need only say here that it differs from the 
type in having distinctly spreading sepals and petals, and the front lobe of 
the lip more elongated and deeper in colour. We learn also that the 
C. citrina for which H. Grinling, Esq., received a First-class Certificate on 
April 23rd, was this variety. The Journal of Horticulture, in its report of 
the meeting, suggested that it was deserving of a varietal name, but this, it 
will be seen, has already been given. Some growers find a difficulty in 
growing this species for long together, but R. Baillie Macbean, Esq., 
St. Mary’s Gate, Lancaster, in a note received, states that he finds the 
bulbs increase in size yearly, even after four years growth, a bulb measured 
proving 3 inches long by 53 inches in circumference: He grows the plant 
on pieces of tree-fern stem, with little or no moss or peat, and finds that it 
both grows and flowers well. The flowers are powerfully fragrant. 
ODONTOGLOSSUMS NEAR GLASGOW. 
Odontoglossums are very well grown in the collection of Hugh Steven, 
Esq., Westmount, Kelvinside, near Glasgow, from whom we have received 
a fine raceme of O. X Andersonianum, and several good forms of O. crispum, 
O. Hallii, and O. luteopurpureum. About two hundred spikes of various 
kinds are showing, and will soon be in full flower. Mr. David Wilson, the 
gardener, states that they are great favourites of Mr. Steven, and that they 
find them the best plants for growing in the vicinity of a smoky city, in 
which respect Glasgow comes second to none in the kingdom. Some good 
examples of the ever popular Dendrobium nobile and D. Wardianum are 
also enclosed, affording equal evidence ot good culture.
