parentage, as the lip showed no trace whatever of Harryanum. I noted 
also O. X Adriane, O. X Rolfee, O. xX Phoebe, O. X Lambeauianum, 
and many others of equal merit (Silver-gilt Medal). 
H. J. Bromilow, Esq., Rann Lea, Rainhill (gr. Mr. Morgan), was 
awarded a Silver-gilt Medal for a choice group of Cypripediums. CC. 
X Rajah, Rann Lea var. (callosum X triumphans), received a First-class 
Certificate. It was a very effective and richly-coloured flower, most like 
triumphans in colour, perhaps richer, and the influence of callosum had 
considerably improved the shape of the dorsal sepal. C. x Lenora gained 
an Award of Merit. I noted also C. xX Victor, C. X Beeckmanii, C. Xx 
triumphans, C. X Olga Bagshawe, C. X Clio giganteum, C. x Boadicea 
magnificum, C. insigne King Edward VII., and many others.

First-class Botanical Certificate and Cultural Certificate, Coelogyne sparsa 
a First-class Botanical Certificate, and Bulbophylum comosum a Second- 
class Botanical Certificate. A Cultural Certificate also went to Lycaste 
plana Measuresiana, a fine plant with thirteen open flowers. I noted also 
the rare Lycaste X Balliz and L. Skinneri alba, a fine Cypripedium X 
Euryades splendens, C. X aureum Surprise, C. X Leander (Leonidas), C. x 
Minos Youngii, C. Curtisii var. Excelsior, Dendrobium X xanthocentrum, &c.
