 held at the Drill Hall—there was again a very good display of Orchids, and 

 Medals were awarded to six groups. 



The Right Hon. Lord Rothschild, Tring Park (gr. Mr. Dye), staged a 

 remarkable group of Masdevallias, and other things, which gained a Silver 

 Flora Medal. The Masdevallias comprised over fifty species, varieties and 

 hybrids, some of them in several examples, the more noteworthy being 

 forms of M. Chimaera, M. ignea, M. Davisii, M. Carderi, M. simula, M. 

 O'Brieniana, the brilliant M. racemosa, M. gemmata, M. radiosa, M. 

 campyloglossa, M. caudata, M. X Rushtoni, M. X Cassiope, M. X Hebe, 

 M. X Courtauldiana, M. X Henriettae, M. X Geleniana, and M. X Bock- 

 ing Hybrid, other interesting allies being Physosiphon Loddigesii, Scapho- 

 sepalum punctatum, S. gibberosum, and S. ochthodes. The group also 

 contained Aerides japonicum, Disa racemosa, Laelio-cattleya X Aphrodite, 

 L.-c. x Mauve Queen, L.-c. X Charles Linnaeus (L.-c. X Gottoiana X C. 

 Warneri), and others. L.-c. X Dominiana, Tring Park var., received an 

 Award of Merit, while Botanical Certificates went to Saccolabium gracile 

 a small Ceylon species, and Cryptophoranthus Lehmanni. 



Mr. Ernest Hills, Penshurst (gr. Mr. G. Ringham), staged a group of 

 extremely well-grown Miltonia vexillaria, to which a Silver Banksian Medal 

 was given.
