224 THE ORCHID REVIEW. 
a noble flower with clear white sepals and petals, and large violet-purple 
lip; L.-c. X Eudora (L. xX purpurata @ x C. Mendelii g), which must 
be considered a variety of L.c. x Aphrodite, from the collection of 
W. R. Lee, Esq., which secured the first prize for the best hybrid Orchid 
at Manchester last year. (See p. 219 of our last volume.) If the records 
are correct the present one arose from the reverse cross. L.-c. X Eudora 
received an Award of Merit on May 5th last, when exhibited by C. Ingram, 
Esq., and on June oth another seedling with the same parentage was 
exhibited as L.-c. xX Regalis, but both must be referred to Lec. x 
Aphrodite. The group also contained the handsome L.-c. X eximia, L-c. 
X Hippolyta, of rich Indian yellow colour, with ruby lip, the rare and 
Pretty rosy lilac Cattleya Schrcederiana Rchb. f.; fine panfuls of Disa X 
langleyensis and D. x kewensis, Selenipedium x Brysa, Cypripedium 
Curtisii, C. ciliolare, C. niveum, C. Volonteanum, Cattleya citrina, Odonto- 
glossum Harryanum and other Odont gl Phal psi amabilis, and 
other good things.

X Massaianum group, with large pale green flower, the petals of which 
were extended like those of C. Rothschildianum, and finely blotched with 
purple. It secured an Award of Merit. - Other good things in the group 
were Selenipedium x Uranus (S. Lindleyanum ¢? xX S. X grande 3), 
somewhat resembling S. S + ; Ang Chaill Cirtho- 
petalum picturatum, Phaius Humblotii, P. x Owenianus, Sobralia X
