CORRESPONDENCE, &c. 
R. Young, Esq., Sefton Park, Liverpool, sends six very fine varieties of Cattleya Triana. 
No. 1 is the pure white C. T. virginalis, a large and well-shaped flower with deep buff- 
yellow lines, almost suffused on the disc; 2 has very broad petals, over 2} inches. 
across, the front lobe of the lip intense purple-crimson, and all the rest of the howe light 
ch 3 is rather similar in colour, but has longer petals, and the purple-crimson extends 
further along the margin of the side-lobes of the lip ; 4 is much like 2 in shape, but the side- 
lobes of the lip well expanded, and the lighter crimson colour extends well down into 
the throat and right round the side-lobes ; 5 is a deeper blush-pink with a small crimson 
area near the apex ; and 6 has the flower almost uniformly blush-pink, the lip unusually 
expanded, no trace of the deeper coloured front lobe, and only a small remnant of the yellow 
disc. Nos. 1, 4 and 6 are extremely beautiful. Lycaste Skinneri Poyntzii is a brightly- 
coloured variety with deep rose-coloured aa and a nearly white lip. 
n exceptionally fine Cypripedium Lawrenceanum comes from Mr. J. Milburn, gr. to 
C. W.. Fi a Esq., Hoyland Hall, es it oh the dorsal sepal over 22 inches broad 
Wm. Owen, Esq., Northwich, Cheshire, sends a large and well-formed flower of the light 
Cattleya srristie delicata.

W. M. A., Weston-super- al oC dlanthe rubens, Ridl., Cypripedium x vernixium, 
and two forms of Dendrobium aureum. 
W. L., Hapton. The Phaius tuberculosus is a very = form. 
E. W., Halifax. A good form of Cymbidium Lowian 
Mr. H. J. Skingley, St. Heliers, Jersey, sends a sceieaie of Eria floribunda with 
seven racemes of small nearly white flowers with a purple lip. He remarks that it is very 
free in growth and flower, and rather pretty. The effect is certainly very graceful. 
Messrs, James Veitch and Sons, Chelsea, send their charming rose-coloured Phalz- 
nopsis X intermedia var. Vesta, described at p. 52 of our last volume. It is far more like 
the seed parent, P. rosea pers both in shape and colour, than any other form of P- 
intermedia. Dendrobium x Cybele, also enclosed, is a handsome hybrid raised by them a 
few years ago from D. Findlayanum and D. nobile, but most resembles the latter.
