348 THE ORCHID REVIEW. [NovEMBER, Ig11. 
The two-flowered spike of a handsome seedling Odontoglossum is sent 
from the collection of W. Thompson, Esq., Walton Grange, Stone, by Mr. 
W. Stevens, who remarks that it is a small plant derived from O. 
Ossulstonii X eximium, and that it resembles O. illustrissimum (Lambeau- 
ianum X armainvillierense) very closely, both in shape and colour. The 
sepals and petals are rich red-brown, with yellow tips and a few similar 
markings below, while the broadly pandurate lip is white in front, and rich 
red-purple on the basal half, with some yellow on the very spiny crest. It 
should develop into a very handsome thing. 
HYBRIDIST. 
CATTLEYA ALWYNII.—This is a very handsome Cattleya from the collection 
of C. Alwyn Harrison, Esq., Lyndhurst, Watford, and was raised in the 
collection from C. Adonis (Enid) X amabilis. The seed was sown in May, ° 
1906, and the plant is now flowering for the first time, bearing a spike of 
five flowers. The original plants all belong to the labiata group, and the 
composition of the hybrid may be described as C. Warscewiczii 4, and 
C. labiata and C. Mossize $+ each. The flower is large and of excellent 
shape, the sepals and petals being bright rose purple, and the lip very dark 
purple crimson, with two yellow blotches in the throat. It is a robust 
grower, and a plant of great promise. : 
A flower of the handsome Lzeliocattleye Mrs. W. Hopkins (L.-c. 
Haroldiana magnifica X Lelia Iona nigricans) is sent from the collection 
of Francis Wellesley, Esq., Westfield Common, Woking. An analysis of 
parentage shows Lelia tenebrosa $ (this coming in through both parents), 
L. Dayana }, Cattleya Dowiana aurea and C. Warscewiczii 1 each. This 
explains a marked resemblance to L.-c. luminosa in colour, but the segments 
are relatively shorter and broader, and of a coppery-buff shade, while the 
lip is intense blackish purple almost throughout, with a rosy lilac blotch 
near the apex. It is said to be a tiny plant, flowering in the seedling house, 
and should develop into a really fine thing. It was recorded at page 221 of 
our last volume. 
L#@LIOCATTLEYA HarRIsONI#&.—A pretty little hybrid from the collec- 
tion of C. Alwyn Harrison, Esq., Lyndhurst, Watford, the parentage being 
Lelia xanthina X Cattleya Loddigesii. Mr. Harrison remarks that it was 
mentioned at p. 25 of our January issue under the name of L.-c. Ethelreda 
Harrison, but that the name and parentage should be amended as above. 
This is the second plant of the batch to flower. In growth the plant 
resembles the Cattleya parent, and the flower is also very similar in shape, 
but the sepals and petals are cream-white, and the disc of the prettily 
crisped lip light yellow. 
L#LIOcATTLEYA CARINA.— A pretty little hybrid from Cattleya
