A flower of the very pretty Lzlio-cattleya x Norba superba (C. Moasiz 
x L. xanthina), for which Messrs. James Veitch & Sons received an Award 
of Merit at the Royal Horticultural Society’s meeting on October 14th, is 
sent from the collection of F. Wellesley, Esq., Westfield, Woking, by Mr. 
Hopkins. The sepals and petals are light buff-yellow, and the front of the 
lip light mauve purple, with some pale yellow on the disc. 
A fine hybrid between Cattleya Harrisoniana and C. Dowianais sent 
by M. C. Vuylsteke, of Loochristi, which must be referred to C. X Mrs- 
Pitt. It is rich purple, with some golden veining on the lip.
