A very pretty form of Cattleya Mossiz has flowered in the collection of 
W. Horton-Smith, Esq., of Northwich, out of a number of plants imported 
last year. It is much like the variety Reineckeana, except that the veinings

Pretty form of Odontoglossum Pescatorei, much like the variety ornatum,

Several very pretty forms of Odontoglossum crispum have been received 
from the collection of Hugh Steven, Esq., of Kelvinside, near Glasgow. 
They include the pure white O. c. virginale; a second with several minute 
spots on the lip, and a very few similar ones on the other segments za third 
with a few large blotches confined to the sepals and lip; a fourth with very

Others from the same collection are O. Hallii with narrow segments; a 
form of O. x mulus, and O. x acuminatissimum, Rchb. f., a rare and 
interesting hybrid between O, luteopurpureum and O. Lindleyanum, A
