THE HYBRIDIST. 
CYPRIPEDIUM X LUTESCENS, Manda. 
TuIs is an interesting hybrid, raised in the establishment of Messis. Pitcher 
and Manda, United States Nurseries, Short Hills, New Jersey, U.S.A;, by 
crossing C. Spicerianum with the pollen of C. javanicum. It has now 
fiowered for the first time. The dorsal sepal is yellowish green, with a few 
faint lines of a darker shade; the petals yellowish green, suffused with lilac 
near their tips, and spotted all over with small purple-brown spots ; the lip 
rather long, green shaded with brown; and the staminode of a beautiful 
lilac shade. The leaves are tessellated with two shades of green.—Garden 
and Forest, December 14, 1892, p. 598. _ 
LYCASTE X SCHCENBRUNNENSIS. 
Lycaste is a genus in which few experiments seem to have been made by 
the hybridist, but a distinct and handsome cross flowered in October last in 
the Emperor of Austria’s collection at Schénbrunn, near Vienna. Lycaste 
Skinneri was one parent, and probably L. Schilleriana the other. The 
Sepals are oblong-lanceolate and acute, from 2} to 2% inches long, rose-pink, 
With a distinctly glaucous surface. The petals are yellowish white at the 
base, and suffused with light pink above, lanceolate-oblong, acute, and 
rather under two inches long, The three-lobed lip has a light yeHow 
ground, the crest and side lobes densely spotted and freckled with light 
purple-crimson ; the side lobes erect and rounded, the front one elliptical- 
ovate and obtuse, and the thickened callus linear, obtuse, and with rounded 
apex. The column is white, except at the base, which, together with its 
foot, is very deep purple-crimson. The flower reached us through Messrs. 
F. Sander and Co., of St. Albans.
