Rogersii, O. splendidum, O. leucochilum, and other fine things. A 
curiosity in the group was a plant of Odontoglossum X_hebraicum 
with one yellow flower, while the remainder were cream coloured, but 
a closer examination showed that it had been fertilised, and this change 
of colour was one of the first effects. 
For a group of fifty exotic Orchids (Amateurs), M. F. Pauwels, of 
Antwerp, was the only competitor, and was awarded the second prize 
(a Gold Medal worth one-hundred francs). The group contained a good

Chamberlainianum, Vanda tricolor, and other good Orchids.

good group, in which Odontoglossum cirrhosum, Lycaste Skinneri alba, 
Cattleya Schroedere, Dendrobium clavatum, Oncidium Marshallianum,
