APRIL, 1910.] THE ORCHID REVIEW. 125 
would have passed for a form of O. X Wilckeanum. O. X Andersonianum 
x luteopurpureum has a light yellow ground colour, heavily barred with 
dark brown on the sepals and more blotched on the petals. The lip is 
broad at the base, and very acuminate above, with one large blotch in front 
of the crest. It much resembles a form of O. X mulus. The next flower 
might be described as a light yellow O. crispum with a tinge of rose in the 
sepals and three or four small red spots in front of the lip’s crest. It is 
said to have been raised from a pale O. crispum crossed with a deeper 
coloured one that used to fade. Two or three seedlings are said to have 
flowered, and all keep their colour. The yellow colour suggests that there 
is some yellow-flowered species in its ancestry. A panicle of the beautiful 
Odontioda Vuylestekez is also sent, bearing four side branches and an 
aggregate of 23 flowers. Mr. Stevens remarks that it has been out for six 
weeks, and is the lightest-coloured form they have. It has a light yellow 
ground colour, with large light red blotches, which cover about half its area. 
They form a most beautiful series, and all were raised in the collection. 
ORCHIDS IN SEASON. 
SEVERAL beautiful flowers are sent from the collection of Walter R. Scott, 
Esq., Crieff Villa, Craghead, Durham. They include a fine Dendrobium 
Wardianum, and a smaller form with white sepals and petals and the usual 
dark blotches on the lip, two forms of the pretty little rhubarb-scented 
D. Parishii, D. nobile, D. x melanodiscus, and the fine D. X Ainsworthii 
splendidissimum, with an allied hybrid having very undulate segments. 
There are also two forms of Odontoglossum crispum, a good typical O. 
Pescatorei, and a prettily spotted O. x Andersonianum, with a small 
Coelogyne flaccida, and what would be taken for a form of Paphiopedilum 
Appletonianum but for its strongly tesselated leaves. We believe that it 
came out of an Annamese importation. The collection now includes over 
1,500 plants. 
Two forms of the charming little Lelia x Degeestiana are sent from 
the collection of E. F. Clark, Esq., of Teignmouth. They are believed to 
be seedlings from a packet of seed obtained from Messrs. Keeling, in the 
spring of 1902, with the record L. flava X Jongheana. Seed of the reverse 
cross was also obtained, but it is believed that none of this germinated. 
One flower has cream-white sepals and petals, and a very undulate, bright 
yellow lip, with a deep golden yellow throat. The spike produced four 
fowers. We should refer it to the variety La Perle. The other form has 
rather more elongated sepals and petals, which are tinged with mauve, 
while a little of the same colour appears on the front and side lobes 
of the lip. This plant shows rather more of the L. Jongheana character.
