May, 1907.] THE ORCHID REVIEW. 15a 
of the strongly three-lobed lip. It came originally as a very small seedling 
from the Highfield collection. 
Some beautiful flowers are sent from the collection of H. S. Goodson, 
Esq., Fairlawn, West Hill, Putney, by Mr. Day. Odontoglossum xX 
Lawrenceanum is a fine yellow hybrid, very heavily blotched with deep 
chestnut brown. O. X ardentissimum var. Herbert Goodson is a superb 
form which received a First-class Certificate from the R.H.S. on April 16th. 
The sepals are slightly suffused with rose and heavily barred with rich 
claret-purple, and the petals, which are as much as 1} inches broad, very 
heavily and regularly blotched with the same colour. O. xX a. Lamus 
is of average shape, and has lighter-coloured blotches regularly disposed on 
a white ground. Cattleya intermedia nivea is a charming albino of the 
species, C. i. carnea has the front lobe suffused with light pink, while a third 
is about intermediate between this and the type, which is also sent, and 
has the front lobe bright rose-purple. 
A beautiful four-flowered inflorescence of Lelio-cattleya Frederick Boyle 
var. Kerchoveze is sent from the collection of J. Leemann, Esq., Heaton 
Mersey, by Mr. Smith. It was derived from a white form of L. anceps 
crossed with Cattleya Triane alba, and has white flowers with a yellow 
disc to the lip. 
Flowers of a large and very richly-coloured form of Dendrobium nobile, 
closely resembling D. n. nobilius, are sent from the collection of G. A 
Marshall, Esq., of Streatham, through Messrs. Hugh Low and Co., also a 
beautiful white form with coloured lip much like D. n. Amesia. They were 
obtained from Messrs. Low’s importations. The former is from a fine 
plant, bearing about 150 flowers.
