OcroweR, 1908.] THE ORCHID REVIEW. oe 
interesting ones as B. virescens, a very fine specimen, B. cupreum, B. 
grandiflorum, B. Watsonianum, B. Sillemianum, B. tremulum, B. ortho- 
glossum (very rare), and a very distinct species from S. Nigeria, Cirrho- 
petalum Rothschildianum, C. Wallichianum, C. Makoyanum, C. appendic- 
ulatum, and some interesting species of Megaclinium, one worth noting 
being M. purpureorachis. 
The second house of this range contains a most complete collection of 
Paphiopedilum insigne, including such good and up-to-date varieties as 
King Edward VII., Greenbank var., Hodgkinsoni, zebrinum, magnificum, 
Harefield Hall var., Sander, Sanderianum, &c., and following these was a 
collection of P. x Leeanum varieties, all showing well for flower, and 
including L. Clinkaberryanum, Model, The Globe, Minerva, virginale, 
magnificum, &c. Onthe opposite stage, and growing particularly well, was 
a miscellaneous lot of plants, principally of botanical interest, Maxillarias, 
Brassias, Ccelias, &c., also a fine batch of the beautiful Vanda Kimballiana. 
The third house of this range contains a fine lot of Masdevallias, in clean, 
vigorous condition, and including many rare and interesting species. The 
opposite side is staged with good plants of the Brazilian Oncidiums, as 
Forbesii, Marshallianum, crispum, and varicosum Rogersii with very strong 
spikes. 
The second range commences with a collection of rare Aérides, Vandas, 
Angrzecums, and Saccolabiums—a very interesting lot, but too numerous to 
specify—and the next division contains a wonderful lot of Lzelio-cattleyas, in 
perfect condition, a great many showing strong flower sheaths and making 
roots galore. The third division is used as a warm house, and here are 
some fine Phalznopsis amabilis Rimestadiana, Schilleriana, &c., also a 
splendid batch of the pretty Dendrobium Phatenopsis, showing good strong 
flower spikes. Suspended from the roof is an interesting lot of Catasetums 
and Cycnoches chlorochilon. The latter were imported recently and are 
getting well established, and some of them are grand specimens with three 
and four new bulbs, all throwing strong flower spikes. The side stage is 
occupied with seedling Paphiopedilums, a choice batch of plants, all with 
parentage of up-to-date varieties, and some showing signs of flowering. It 
should prove very interesting to see the results. ; 
The next range commences with a house containing nothing but Vanda 
coerulea, all smart-looking plants. Messrs. Moore make a speciality of this 
Orchid, as is proved by the fine specimens and the large number of flower 
spikes, about 300, which are showing ; while among those in bloom one could 
pick out many large, bold flowers of the deep blue type. The next division is 
used as a Cattleya house, and on entering one is struck with the clean and 
sturdy appearance of the plants. Like most of their plants, these are potted 
in the special Osmunda fibre, with which the firm has made a name for itself.
