Holden, Keeling, Lee, Parker, Smith, Stevens, Shill, Sander, Thorp, Ward 
and Weathers (Hon. Sec.). 
W. R. Lee, Esq., Heywood (gr. Mr. Woodhouse), exhibited a fine 
collection of plants, which included choice Odontoglossums, Cypripediums, 
and Cattleyas. The plants selected from this group for awards were 
Cypripedium x King George V., a large well-shaped flower, the parentage 
of which was not recorded (F.-c. C.), Odontoglossum crispum xanthotes 
var. Walker (A.M.), Cypripedium xX San-ac-deree Plumpton Hall var. 
(A.M.), C. x Hermese, from C. X Euryades x Leeanum (A.M.), and 
Leliocattleya Black Prince, a richly-coloured hybrid between L.-c. 
bletchleyensis and C. x Hardyana. 
J. J. Holden, Esq., Southport (gr. Mr. Johnson), sent Cattleya x 
Countess of Derby, which, although we have known it for nearly 20 years, 
is to-day one of the most beautiful Orchids in cultivation. The plant bore 
five blossoms on its spike, which is a testimonial to its grower. The plant 
received the distinction of being awarded a Silver Medal. 
O. O. Wrigley, Esq., Bury (gr. Mr. Rogers), made a grand display of 
Orchids. It was composed of Vanda ccerulea, Odontoglossum grande, 
Cypripedium Fairrieanum, Dendrobium Phalznopsis Schroederianum, 
Cypripedium Maudiz, C. callosum Sander, and Epidendrum vitellinum 
majus, all magnificently grown and staged in masses, the effect being 
reminiscent of some of the notable Temple Show groups. Mr. Rogers, 
the gardener at this establishment, was awarded a Gold Medal for Cultural 
excellence. 
R. Ashworth, Esq., Newchurch (gr. Mr. Gilden), staged a good group, 
in which were fine examples of Odontoglossums, white forms of Cattleya 
labiata, and other well-known plants. A Silver Medal was awarded.

W. Thompson, Esq., Stone, Staffs. (gr. Mr. Stevens), exhibited a few 
Cypripediums, C. x rubens, and C. x Lord Ossulston, Walton Grange var., 
receiving Awards of Merit. 
Messrs. Cypher & Sons, Cheltenham, displayed one of their usual good 
groups, in which choice forms of Dendrobium Phalznopsis Schroederianum 
were prominent, in addition to Cypripediums, Cattleyas, and numerous 
other fine things.

Bridge (Silver Medal); F. A. Hindley, Bradford (Bronze Medal); Col.
