F. Sander, F. J. Thorne, H. A. Tracy, W. H. Young, and J. O’Brien 
(hon. sec.). 
G. F. Moore, Esq., Chardwar, Bourton-on-the- Water (gr. Mr. Morris), 
was awarded a Silver Flora Medal for a fine group of about three dozen 
Cypripedium varieties, the majority being cut examples. It contained a fine 
lot of C. insigne varieties, including Sandere and Harefield Hall variety? 
also the best forms of C. x Arthurianum, C. X Leeanum, C. x Niobe, &c. 
hg }j Grogan, Esq., Worthing, exhibited Lelio-cattleya x Lucasiana 
(labiata flammea x tenebrosa), which received an Award of Merit. It is 
allied to L.-c. X Gottoiana, and has flowers of a uniform bright rose-purple, 
with darker purple markings on the lip. The flower is larger than L. 
tenebrosa, and broader in all its parts. 
F. W. Moore, Esq., Royal Botanic Gardens, Glasnevin, sent Neoben- 
thamia gracilis (Rolfe) for which he received a Botanical Certificate. It is 
a graceful African Orchid, bearing heads of pretty white flowers with purple 
and yellow spots on the lips. He also sent Houlletia odoratissima, Maxillaria 
punctata, M. picta, and M. longipetala. 
W. A. Bilney, Esq., Fir Grange, Weybridge (gr. Mr. Whitlock), exhibited 
a large and handsome form of Cymbidium Tracyanum. 
N. C. Cookson, Esq., Oakwood, Wylam-on-Tyne (gr. Mr. Murray), sent 
a plant of the beautiful Cypripedium insigne Sanderz raised in the collection 
by fertilising with its own pollen, together with a flower of the wild type. 
On comparison, the home-raised example proves to be superior, being 
broader in all its parts, owing to which it was called ‘‘ Oakwood variety.” 
C. H. Feiling, Esq., Southgate House, Southgate (gr. Mr. Stocking), 
exhibited a handsome Cypripedium Boxallii atratum. 
C. S. Harris, Esq., Southgate (gr. Mr. Davis), showed a handsome Cypri- 
pedium called Hilda Davis (insigne Chantini x Leeanum Englehardtii).

fine form of Cattleya Percivaliana. 
R. I. Measures, Esq., Ladymead, Reigate, Sussex (gr. Mr. Wotton), 
showed Cypripedium xX Zeus and a good C. x Charles Richman. 
Lieut.-Colonel Shipway, Grove House, Chiswick (gr. Mr. Walters), sent 
two specimens of the chaste Lelia autumnalis alba, one of which was 
perhaps the finest variety of this plant yet shown. 
Messrs. J. Veitch and Sons, Chelsea, staged a very fine group, and were 
awarded a Silver Flora Medal. It contained several examples of Lelia x 
Mrs. M. Gratrix, varying from pale yellow to orange, L. x splendens, 
Lzlio-cattleya x Coronis (C. labiata X L. cinnabarina), copper-yellow in 
colour with a purple lip, L.-c. x Terentia, L.-c. X leucasta (bicolor x
