Merit from the R.H.S. on January gth last, under the name of Cypripedium 
San-Acteus, Westfield var. It is said to have been a solitary seedling 
raised by Messrs. James Veitch & Sons, from C. insigne Harefield Hall 
var. and C. Actaus langleyense, and was afterwards acquired by Mr. 
Wellesley. It is a large and striking form, having a dorsal sepal 22 inches.

somely blotched with purple-brown. The petals and lip are yellow, with 
brown suffusion and markings. Its general character is well shown in 
the figure, which is from a photograph by Mr. F. W. Rolfe, but was 
inadvertently too much reduced in size. For some time it was known as 
C. etoniense, and has been so recorded, but the Orchid Committee changed 
the name as above. C. San-Actzus was raised in the collection of the 
late Norman C. Cookson, Esq., from C. insigne Sandere and C. Actzus, 
and received the R.H.S. Award of Merit in January, 1905.
