and the lip and staminode also bear much resemblance to those organs in 
C. purpuratum. The lateral sepals are free, but this peculiarity may not be 
constant. The plant is still small, and the flower has clearly not yet 
reached its full development. 
L#LIO-CATTLEYA X DARWINIANA. 
A strikingly beautiful hybrid has just flowered in the collection of C. 
Ingram, Esq., Elstead House, Godalming, raised by Mr. Bond from Leelio- 
cattleya X elegans Turneri ? and Cattleya maxima $, which received an 
Award of Merit at the Royal Horticultural Society’s meeting on August 
27th last. The flower has the general shape of the seed parent, but the 
segments rounder and broader, in colour light rosy purple; the side lobes of 
the lip a little paler and tipped with the same colour as the broad, very 
undulate front lobe, namely, brilliant amethyst-purple. Some yellow occurs 
on the sides of the isthmus. The pseudobulbs are monophyllous, as in the 
pollen parent. : 
L&#LIO-CATTLEYA X ELSTEADENSIS. 
A charming little plant, raised in the same collection as the preceding, 
which received an Award of Merit at the same time. Its parents are 
Cattleya bicolor ? and Lelia xanthina g, whose characters it very well 
combines. The sepals and petals are spreading, and bright yellow in 
colour, and the lip three-lobed, with well-developed white side lobes, and a 
bright amethyst-purple front lobe. The shape of the lip closely approaches 
that of L.-c. x elegans, and it is rather curious to find the side lobes so 
well developed when they are absent in the seed-parent. It is a very 
interesting little plant. 
L&LIO-CATTLEYA X ANDREANA. 
This is a hybrid between Cattleya bicolor and Lzlio-cattleya x elegans, 
raised by M. Maron in the collection of M. L. Fournier, of Marseilles, the 
seed being sown in 1880. The pseudobulbs are diphyllous, and the flower 
rather larger than that of C. bicolor, with creamy rose sepals and petals, 
and the middle lobe of the lip rather long, and of a dull magenta colour. 
CYPRIPEDIUM x MABELIZ VAR. LORD DERBY. 
The proper name of the magnificent hybrid Cypripedium exhibited by 
T. Statter, Esq., at the Royal Horticultural Society’s meeting on August 
13th last, and again a fortnight later, has proved a subject of unusual 
difficulty. On the first occasion it was exhibited under the name of C. X 
Lord Derby, and the Orchid Committee gave it a First-class Certificate, 
but, through a misapprehension, changed the name to C. X Massaianum
