224 THE ORCHID REVIEW. : [JULY, 1903. 
ODONTOGLOSSUM X COOKSONI VAR AMABILE. 
A flower of a fine seedling Odontoglossum is sent from the collection of 
Captain Holford, Westonbirt, Tetbury, by Mr. Alexander. It was 
obtained from M. Peeters, of Brussels (who, however, was not the raiser), 
and was exhibited at the Temple Show, though overlooked in our report. 
There wasa little doubt about the parentage, but on comparison we believe 
it to be a hybrid between O.crispum and O. Hallii. The flower measures 
4} inches across its broadest diameter, and the ground colour is licht 
yellow, blotched with red brown on the petals and more strongly so on the 
sepals and lip. The segments are broad and acuminate, and the lip, crest, 
and column also show much of the Hallii influence.
