and several clumps of D. aggregatum suspended from the roof, on rafts, 
while close by is a small basket of the charming little D. Loddigesii. The 
hybrids include D. x Juno, D. x micans, and D. x Aspasia. In passing, 
one cannot help mentioning the gigantic D. undulatum, the flowers of 
which are still fresh, though they have been open quite five weeks. 
Among other interesting plants in flower in this house are Phaius X 
Cooksoni, P. Wallichii, Spathoglottis x aureo-Vieillardii, Schomburgkia 
rosea, Cynorchis x’ kewensis, Ansellia congoensis and A. nilotica, Chysis 
bractescens, Ccelogyne Huetteriana, C. Parishii, and C. pandurata, carry- 
ing two large racemes of green and black flowers. Passing on, we come to 
the curious but handsome Cyrtopodium palmifi C. and C. 
Andersoni, the two former having petaloid bracts, like ei flowers, of a 
mixture of reddish brown and yellow. Suspended from the roof are two 
plants of Scuticaria Hadweni bearing several flowers each, also Stanhopea 
eburnea, whose flowers are very fragrant. A plant of Oncidium altissimum 
is carrying a good strong spike. 
In the Botanical corner are several interesting plants, including 
Maxillaria platypetala, Epidendrum Ellisii, Cirrhopetalum picturatum, 
a eomates, De ise es nodosa, I Mormélyce lineolata, the heliotrope- 
scented Bulbop i B. fuscum, and the recently- 
introduced Tilystachia Haroldiana.

Percivaliana are all in flower, also Lelia Jongheana, L. harpophylla, 
Brassolelia x Gratrixize, Cymbidium Ballianum, Maxillaria ochroleuca, 
M. Houtteana, M.- prestans, Oncidium sarcodes, O. Marshallianum, and 
- O. concolor, the latter suspended from the roof in pans, giving a bright 
appearance to the whole house. Several Epidendrums also add to the 
attractions of the house, as E. evectum, E. verrucosum, E. Wallisii, and 
the sweet-scented E. gl Trichopilias include T. sanguinolenta, 
T. laxa, and the handsome T. suavis. Suspended from the roof are Eria i 
Kingii, Ornithocephalus grandiflorus, and the handsome Dendrobium atrfo- — 
violaceum. A second New Guinea species, D. Madonnz, is still as perfect 
as last month. 
A second warm house is devoted to Cypripedes and the Vanda groups : 
each occupying one side of the house. Among the Paphiopedilums af 
several additions, as P. exul, P. Gratrixianum, P. nigritum, P. concolor
