purple, and the whole covered with many small purple-brown dots. The 
front of the lip is bright red-purple, this organ being two inches long. The 
staminode is broadly rounded, with two cuspidate teeth in front, very flat, 
and with a zone of colour, formed of a suffusion of purple and green, between 
the pale centre and margin. 
CYPRIPEDIUM X JANET Ross. 
On two occasions we have received from H. J. Ross, Esq., Poggio 
Gherardo, Florence, Italy, a hybrid Cypripedium bearing the above name. 
{It was derived from C. x Swanianum 2? and C. x Harrisianum 2, so that 
its parentage may be expressed thus: C. barbatum 4, C. villosum 4, C. 
Dayanum j. It is moist like C. x Swanianum in shape, the dorsal sepal 
being ovate and one and a half inches broad, with about nineteen green 
lines on a white ground, slightly suffused with very light purple, 
except at the margin. The spreading petals are two and three-quarter 
inches long, ciliate, very light purple veined with light green. The lip is 
two and a quarter inches long, and of a dull light purple in front; and the 
staminode nearly orbicular with blunt teeth, and reticulated with green on 
a light ground. The leaf is light shining yellowish-green, beautifully 
reticulated with deep green. The characters of C. villosum are least appa- 
rent in the flower.
