OCTOBER, 1913.] THE ORCHID REVIEW. 3°09 
noted Leliocattleya Boylei var. Kerchovee and L.-c. Cholletiana in spike. 
Then came another house containing a fine batch of Cattleya Warscewiczii’ 
Sanderiana, a few brilliant forms being in bloom, also a lot of C. Schreedere,. 
showing much variation, a few C. Mendelii, Epidendrum Stamfordianum, 
Brassia verrucosa, Brassavola fragrans, with a spike of nine flowers, &c. 
The white forms of Lelia anceps are excellent for cut flowers, and we 
found a large house of them, the longer bulbs, as compared with the purple- 
flowered typical form, being pointed out. Then came other houses of 
Cattleyas and allies, choice Cypripediums, in which we found a lot of the 
handsome C. Curtisii nobilior in flower, Miltonias, Odontoglossums, Vanda 
coerulea, and miscellaneous subjects, some of which we were obliged to miss 
for want of time. In passing through them we noted a few good. 
Trichopilia suavis and Backhouseana, Lycaste fulvescens with seven 
flowers, a lot of Anguloas in bud, the brilliant Cochlioda Neetzliana, 
Dendrobium Kingianum, various interesting Masdevallias, Epidendrum: 
glumaceum, Oncidium trulliferum, a lot of Saccolabium bellinum, Coelogyne 
Mooreana, &c., &c. 
In a house of Dendrobiums we noted good forms of D. Dearei, Sanderz, 
and the fine D. Schuetzii, forming an interesting trio, D. Brymerianum,. 
crassinode, Jenkinsii, Devonianum, hercoglossum, Bronckartii, and batches- 
of the well-known popular species, while Ccelogyne Dayana with several: 
pendulous spikes was very graceful. 
Our notes have become somewhat lengthy, but we have omitted more- 
than we have found space to note, for the establishment is so large, and the 
Standard of culture of so high a class that one cannot do justice to it even: 
in a long article. The hybrid department is an establishment in itself, and 
the seedlings are so numerous that they overflow into most of the other 
houses. All are from choice crosses, for the need for selection in the- 
parents is now fully realised, and many sterling novelties may be anticipated. 
as the seedlings reach the flowering stage. We must congratulate Messrs. 
Sander and their able Chef de Culture, M. Chollet, on the excellent 
condition of the establishment. 
GHENT SUMMER EXHIBITION. 
A SuMMER Show, organised by the Cercle Van Houtte, was held in the 
Palaise de |’Horticulture, Ghent, from August gth to 17th, and produced a- 
magnificent display, though not so extensive and imposing as the earlier 
Quinquennial Exhibition held in the same building in April. The arrange- 
ments were very successfully carried out by a committee, under the 
Presidency of Count Joseph de Hemptinne, and the awards were made by 
an International Jury. Orchids were shown in remarkable numbers,-. 
considering the season, and in excellent quality, and on this occasion were
