350 THE ORCHID REVIEW. [ NOVEMBER, 1906. 
BRASSOCATTLEYA XX DiGBYANo-ForBEsiI.—This very distinct. and: 
striking bybrid was exhibited at the R.H.S. meeting held on October gth, 
by Major G. L. Holford, Westonbirt, Tetbury (gr. Mr. Alexander). It is 
fairly intermediate in character, having oblong sepals and petals, 2} inches 
long, pale greenish in colour, and a broad, strongly 3-lobed, fringed lip o 
similar tint, with a slight suffusion of pink and a few purple streaks on the 
disc. The Forbesii character comes out very strongly in the lip, and the 
hybrid is very distinct from those derived from the labiata group of. 
Cattleyas. 
LmLio-CcATTLEYA PERRILOSA.—A hybrid raised in the collection of R. I. 
Measures, Esq., Cambridge Lodge, Camberwell, from Lelia Perrin ? 
and Cattleya granulosa 3, which was exhibited at the R.H.S meeting on 
October gth last. A flower sent by Mr. Smith shows that the hybrid has 
retained largely the shape of the pollen parent, with a more membranous 
texture and different colour. The sepals and petals are light purple, 
24 inches long, and the lip very strongly three-lobed, with whitish side 
lobes, and an unguiculate, suborbicular front lobe about an inch broad. 
L&LIO-CATTLEYA TENEGOTTOI.—This was purchased as a seedling from 
Lalia tenebrosa X Lzlio-cattleya Gottoiana, but otherwise has the same 
history as the preceding. The flower is most comparable with L.-c. 
Gottoiana, being large, and rosy purple, with a darker entire lip, and a pair 
of faint yellow eyes in the throat. The pollen parent is a natural hybrid 
between Lelia tenebrosa and Cattleya Warneri, and, assuming the 
parentage to be correctly recorded, the influence of the original Cattleya 
parentage is retained more than might have been anticipated. 
CYPRIPEDIUM x DISCOLOR. 
Ir may be remembered that when writing an account of Mr. Warner's 
hybrid Cypripedes (O.R. xiii. p. 292) we remarked that C. X discolor 
appeared to have been completely lost sight of, in reply to which the late 
Mr. Reginald Young wrote that he had the plant, and promised to send a 
flower at the first opportunity (I.c. p. 349). The promise has been carried 
out by Mrs. Young, who has kindly sent a flower and leaf. As this is the 
only one of the series which has not been figured, a short description may 
be interesting. It shows very clearly its C. venustum origin, and the leaf. 
agrees better with that parent than do any of.the others, as it is completely 
marbled with purple spots beneath, while the upper surface is dull 
glaucous green, rather dark in colour, with traces of the typical venustum 
markings. The flower is most comparable with C. x chloroneurum, but 1s 
much darker. The dorsal sepal is ovate, somewhat reflexed at the sides, 40 
inch and a half long, with about fifteen very dark purple bands, which
