THE ORCHID REVIEW. 
Vo. 1] JUNE, 1893. . [No. 6. 
NOTES. 
Tue Great Annual Flower Show of the Royal Horticultural Society, held on 
May 25th and 26th at the Temple Gardens, was favoured by brilliant weather, 
nd was a great success. The Orchids, as usual, formed one of the leading 
features, and a magnificent collection was brought together. It was feared 
that, owing to the long spell of hot, dry weather we have experienced, many 
of them would be past their best, which was happily not the case. A report 
ppears on another page. Owing to the event occurring so near the end of 
he month we are obliged to go to press a little later than usual. 
: The Manchester Show, to which we alluded last month (p. 130), was also - 
Williant success, and the display of Orchids at the Old Trafford Gardens 
chester, and its able secretary, Mr. Bruce Findlay, may certainly be con- 
§tatulated on their success. 
The February and March numbers of the Kew Bulletin, issued asa double 
Number early in May, contains another decade of new Orchids, of which 
Particulars are given on a later page. 
: The Royal Horticultural Society will hold two meetings during June, at 
_ the Drill Hall, James Street, Victoria Street, Westminster, on the 6th and 
ena; eestively, when the Orchid Committee will meet at 12 o’clock, 
On the former occasion a Silver-gilt Flora Medal is offered for the best 
g Orchid not exhibited previous to January rst, 1893. The Esau 
on is open, and should be an interesting one.
