Veitchianus, as it was then called. This was another generic cross; it was 
in cultivation in 1888, and may be so still. It also received a First-class 
Certificate. 
In July, 1863, another Cattleya flowered for the first time, namely, C. 
x Aclandi-Loddigesii, afterwards called C. x Brabantiz. It was awarded a 
Silver Banksian Medal and a First-class Certificate. Lindley remarks that 
“it was shown as Cattleya hybrida, but as the name is not sufficiently 
distinctive from other hybrid Cattleyas, it is better to apply to it the joint 
titles of its parents.’’ CC. Loddigesii was the séed parent. 
The next hybrid which flowered was called Cattleya x exoniensis, and is 
a most interesting plant. It was exhibited on September gth, 1863; but, not 
being fully developed, was only given a Second-class Certificate, though a 
year later it received the higher award. At first it was said to have been 
derived from Cattleya Mossie and Lelia purpurata, but afterwards from 
C. Mossiz and Lelia crispa. The latter record may be correct, though the 
time of flowering, both of the hybrid and of L. crispa, which was undoubtedly 
the other parent, suggest Cattleya labiata rather than C. Mossiz. At all 
events, it was a generic cross, probably the first one to flower ; for the two 
Goodyeras just mentioned were grown for their foliage, and there is no 
record of their having flowered. It is still one of the handsomest hybrids 
of the group to which it belongs. 
Immediately afterwards another generic cross flowered for the first time, 
and was exhibited on September 22nd, 1863, under the name of Cattleya x 
Devonia, which was afterwards changed to C. x devoniensis. It was said 
to have been derived from Lelia crispa and Cattleya granulosa, but was 
soon thought to be a variety of Lelia elegans, and almost lost sight of. 
The two, however, are quite distinct, and there can be little doubt that the 
present one was derived from Lelia crispa and Cattleya guttata, while L. x 
elegans is a natural hybrid between L. purpurata and C. Leopoldi. 
The next hybrid which flowered was a genuine Lelia, derived from L. 
crispa and L. Perrinii, the former being the seed parent. It was exhibited 
at a meeting of the Horticultural Society in May, 1864, as Cattleya x 
Pilcheri, the two parents then being generally called Cattleyas. It was 
afterwards described as Lelia x Pilcheri. It is said to have been raised in 
1853, and thus must have been one of Mr. Dominy’s earliest crosses. 
In May, 1865, another hybrid of the Ancectochilus group appeared. It 
was exhibited as A. x Dominii, and was awarded a First-class Certificate. 
Its parents are recorded as Goodyera discolor and Ancectochilus xanthophyllus, 
and it was said to possess much of the vigorous constitution of the former. 
Cattleya x quincolor flowered in June, 1865, and was awarded a First- 
class Certificate by the Horticultural Society. It was raised by Mr. Dominy 
between Cattleya Forbesii and C. Aclandiz. 
Cattleya x Manglesii flowered in August, 1866, which, excluding the
