FrpRuARY, 1906. | THE ORCHID REVIEW. 63 
A painting of alight yellow form of Paphiopedilum x Fowler, called 
var. Graham L. Wilson, grown in the collection of Mrs. G. B. Wilson, 
of Philadelphia, U.S.A. (gr. Mr. E. I is Sent through Mee “age 
& Sons. It was derived from P. Chamb and 
and was purchased some years ago from Mr. Corning, es the celebrated 
Corning collection. It is described as free flowering, the spike being about 
a foot long, and bearing three to four flowers. It conforms to the type in 
shape, but the ground colour of the flower is light yellow. 
A photograph of a curious freak is sent by Mr. J. McCartney, of Bolton. 
It represents a Cattleya, apparently C. Trianz, which was purchased at 
the late Stand Hall Sale as an unflowered plant. Mr. McCartney writes :— 
“Shortly after it commenced to make what seemed to be a strong break, 
but when about an inch in length I was surprised to see a bud forming, 
which eventually developed into the flower, as photographed. It was 
fully seven inches across, and was in no way deformed.’ _It appears to be 
due to a very curious arrest of the vegetative organs, and will probably not 
be repeated on the second growth. 
A recent issue of the Gardening World contains (p. 40) an account of the 
varieties of Cypripedium insigne in the collection of G. F. Moore, Esq., 
Chardwar, Bourton-on-the-Water, together with a figure of one of the 
houses. The Gardeners’ Magazine (p. 43) has also an account of the same 
collection, and remarks that Mr. Moore has the greatest number of 
C. insigne varieties of any collection in the United Kingdom or in the 
world.
