Baron Sir Henry Schréder, The Dell, Englefield Green (gr. Mr. 
Ballantine), sent two magnificent specimens of Odontoglossum coronarium 
brevifolium, one with five, the other with four inflorescences. They have 
been cultivated for many years with great success (Silver Flora Medal). 
Sir Jeremiah Colman, Bart., Gatton Park, Reigate (gr. Mr. Bound), 
staged a beautiful little group of hybrids raised at Gatton, including a series 
of Phaiocalanthe Colmanii, ranging from pink to white in colour, the 
richly-coloured Spathoglottis x Colmanii, a good Odontoglossum X 
Wilckeanum, and the pretty little Brassolzlia fladosa. Awards of Merit 
were given to the two following: Cymbidium xX Lady Colman (eburneo- 
Lowianum X Tracyanum) is a very beautiful hybrid, resembling the latter 
in size, and having light greenish yellow sepals and petals, with fine dotted 
purple lines, and a white lip blotched with red-purple. Diacrocattleya 
Colmanize (Diacrium bicornutum X Cattleya intermedia nivea) is a 
remarkable generic hybrid, most like the Diacrium in habit, and bearing an 
erect spike of one flower and three buds, the expanded flower being 33 inches 
in diameter, and white, with a pale sulphur-coloured lip (See fig. 14). 
R. Brooman-White, Esq., Arddarroch, Dumbartonshire, sent a fine lot of 
cut spikes of Odontoglossum crispum, ina series of beautiful varieties, a very 
fine O. X loochristiense, and some good Cattleya Trianz, Lelia anceps, &c. 
The Marquis de Wavrin, Chateau de Ronsele, Ghent (gr. M. de Geeste), 
sent two very beautiful forms of Cattleya Trianz, which had, unfortunately, 
been damaged by fog. The variety Princess Elizabeth of Belgium is a very 
fine white, slightly tinged with lilac, and the front of the lip rose-purple, 
with only a trace of yellow in the tube. 
Francis Wellesley, Esq., Westfield, Woking (gr. Mr. Hopkins), sent 
Cypripedium x Mrs. William Mostyn (villosum xX Mons de Curte), having 
a round white dorsal sepal, handsomely spotted with purple, and the petals 
and lip yellow, suffused with brown, and C. Gratrixianum giganteum, a very 
large and striking form. 
Messrs. Charlesworth & Co., Heaton, Bradford, staged a very fine group, 
to which a Silver Flora Medal was given. It contained some very fine forms 
of Cattleya x Empress Frederick and C. X Octave Doin, two very richly- 
coloured forms of Lzlio-cattleya X luminosa, L.-c. Sylvia (L.-c. Phoebe X 
Ascania),a pretty yellow flower with the front of the lip rose, Odontoglossum 
x Lambeauianum var. Lyoth, a very fine form, densely blotched with claret 
colour, good forms of O. X Ossultoni and O. Pescatorei, a particularly good 
example of Odontioda Bohnhoffiz bearing three spikes, Lycaste X Balliz, 
L. lasioglossa, good forms of Cypripedium Xx aureum, and others. A® 
Award of Merit was given to Sophrocattleya Antiochus var. rubra (S.-C

with darker veining on the petals, and the lip deep rose-purple.
