270 THE ORCHID REVIEW. [SEPTEMBER, 1910. 
spike. There were plants of Odontioda Bohnhoffiz and O. Lutetia in 
bloom, with a number of O. Bradshawiz and O. Devossiana in spike. 
Suspended in the next house were plants of the new Oncidium Claesii 
growing with great vigour, with some of the curious O. zebrinum, which 
creeps over the bushes in a wild state, also one of the rare O. corynephorum, 
O. sphacelatum with three spikes, the rare Miltonia levis with a large 
panicle, Odontoglossum bictoniense album, a yellow O. crispum, O. crocidip- 
terum and the yellow O. Lindenii in spike, Masdevallia Schlimii, with a lot 
of M. ignea and coccinea. A number of Sobralias were in bloom, including 
S. macrantha alba, xantholeuca, x Veitchii, x Amesiana, and Colmanie, 
making a good display. A capsule of Cymbidium Devonianum  X insigne 
should yield a very curious hybrid. 
The next house contained the rare Houlletia Brocklehurstiana in bloom, 
examples of Anguloa Clowesii and Ruckeri, a lot of autumn-blooming 
Epidendrum vitellinum, E. prismatocarpum, E. pristes, Chysis levis, most of 
the flowers being without lips, Oncidium tigrinum, just beginning to flower, 
and a strong plant of Cecelia macrostachya, while in an adjacent Warm 
house were examples of Dendrobium Phalenopsis and D. Sandere, the 
striking Schombocattleya spiralis, and the distinct Lelia x Bella (purpurata. 
X grandiflora), which is figured on page 265. 
It was particularly interesting to see in the next Warm house a female 
flower of both Cycnoches densiflorum and chlorochilon. Males of the latter 
were borne on separate plants, and there were male spikes of C. maculatum, 
also of Catasetum maculatum and C. Tracyanum, a fine inflorescence of 
Mormodes luxatum, Mes Papilio and Kramerianum, and the fragrant 
Miltonia Roezlii alba. 
In a Cool house were plants of the pretty little Lalia monophylla, one 
of them bearing a couple of two-flowered spikes, a quite unusual character. 
Here also was a hybrid from Cochlioda Neetzliana x Odontoglossum 
cordatum, having red flowers with a diverging free lip, the handsome Disa 
x Luna, Cochlioda vulcanica, sanguinea and Neetzliana, Miltonia Regnelii, 
the distinct Satyrium sphzrocarpum, with examples of Oncidium sarcodes, 
curtum, pretextum, and Wentworthianum. 
In the Cattleya houses a few things were in bloom, among which we 
noted the handsome C. Gaskelliana and C. G. alba, C. x lucida, 
C. x Adula, a few C. Warscewiczii, C. Loddigesii, Brassocattleya Veitchii 
Queen Alexandra, B.-c. Hyez, B.-c. Maroni, some good Leeliocattleya 
callistoglossa, Dominiana, Berthe Fournier, Nysa, eximia, a richly-coloured 
hybrid’ from L.-c. Issy x C. X Hardyana, and others, Brassolelia 
Veitchii, Lelia xanthina, the handsome Sophrolzlia Marathon, &c. A very 
large number of sheaths were showing, and a fine display is anticipated 
during the coming autumn. We also noted two very fine dark Vanda
