ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS. 
[Orchids are named and questions matte here as far as possible. Correspondents are . 
requested to ag the oe country or parentage of plants sent. An ADDRESSED postcard must be 
sent if a reply by post is desired (abrie d, rh pasted: showld be used). Subjects of spectal interest 
will be dealt with in ‘he body of the work. | 
W.C.S.—The flower sent, raised from arte Leopoldii x Mendelii, is a very good 
of C. Harrisii. We believe that the name under which you purchased it has never 
unless it improves or Pe a better form appears. Dendrobium sanguinolentum album is @ 
rare and interesting plan 
T.L.M.—Many thanks. We should much like the proposed note when you have time 
to do it justice. 
W.B., Hamburg.—You are right in apes this Venezuelan Cattleya to be a lig 
form of C. Lueddemanniana, Rchb.f. The flower is rather small, probably because te 
plant is not yet well established. 
C.E.R., Shanghai.—Ccelogyne flexuosa, Rolfe. 
.K.—Dendrobium moschatum is an evergreen species, and must not be rested in the 
same way as D. Wardianum. It should be grown under the same conditions as D. thyrsi- 
florum and D. chrysanthum. 
-G.—1, Epidendrum glumaceum, Lindl. ; 2, may be a form of Paphiopedilum ne 
burtoniz, ‘ca both the purple of P. barbatum and the spots of fs insigne are much i 
evidence ; 3, looks like a poor form of P. insigne.
