ApRIL, 1¢03,] THE ORCHID REVIEW. 125 
A flower of the pretty little Dendrobium Xx Bryan (luteolum x Wardi- 
anum) is sent from the collection of R. Ashworth, Esq., Newchurch, near 
Manchester. It most resembles D. luteolum in general character, with the 
addition of numerous reddish maroon radiating lines on the lower half of. 
the lip. Mr. Pidsley remarks that it is a miffy grower, but it is found that 
when placed in the Cattleya House it makes shorter and stiffer growth than 
in the East Indian House, and some other Dendrobiums are found to behave 
in the same way. 
A fine ten-flowered inflorescence of the beautiful Cattleya amethystoglossa 
is sent from the collection of Mrs. Grogan, Baltinglass, Co. Wicklow, 
together with Lelia x Latona in excellent condition. The former is: 
especially well grown, and another flower of it has been crossed with the 
Lzlia mentioned, in the hope of getting some pretty free-flowering hybrid. 
A good form of the pretty little Odontoglossum x Adriane is sent 
from the collection of Joseph Broome, Esq., Sunny Hill, Llandudno, 
and, as usual, it appeared in a lot of O. crispum. The colour is light 
yellow, copiously blotched with brown. 
Flowers of a good bright form of Odontoglossum Rossii are sent from 
the collection of W. M. Appleton, Esq., of Weston-super-Mare, together 
with a good form of Paphiopedilum X Gertrude Hollington, and three 
pretty hybrids from P. Chamberlainianum. The first has P. X Godefroy 
leucochilum for the pollen parent, and is a very promising little hybrid, 
fairly intermediate in shape and colour. In the second case P. insigne is 
suggested as probable, and the flower shows some evidence of such an 
origin. The thirdis quite doubtful, but may have P. insigne or one of its 
hybrids as the second parent. The flower is large, with the dorsal sepal 
yellowish green, strongly reticulated with purple, and the petals more green, 
spotted all over with dark purple-brown. The leaf is green. It is a hand- 
some thing, and the question of its origin may be cleared up hereafter. 
Two large and beautiful forms of Cattleya Trianz are sent from the 
collection of Darcy E. Taylor, Esq., of Chippenham (gr. Mr. Coote). One 
is delicate blush pink, with the lip a shade darker, and traces remaining of 
a purple blotch in front of the deep yellow throat. The petals are 24 
inches broad. The second is bright rose-pink, with the petals 23 inches 
broad, and the front of the lip rich purple-crimson, which colour extends 
right round the apex of the side lobes to where they meet. The throat is 
deep yellow, and the strongly undulate margin pale lilac. 
Flowers of several fine Orchids are sent from the collection of J. E.. 
Vanner, Esq., Camden Wood, Chislehurst, by Mr. Robbins, including 
Masdevallia xX Heathii, the fine Cymbidium X eburneo-Lowianum, 
C. Lowianum with the front lobe of the lip extremely dark, Phragmi-- 
pedilum xX cardinale and P. X pulchellum, the beautiful Phaius xX
