L.*:lio-Cattleya Aiglessa. — Two 

 varieties of this hybrid between L.-C. Nysa 

 and C. Iris have come from the raiser, Mr. 

 Chas. J. Phillips, The Glebe, Sevenoaks. 

 They resemble a glorified C. Loddigesii, but 

 the colour of the sepals and petals is more of 

 a rose-pink, while the three-lobed labellum 

 has the margin of the median segment prettily 

 crisped, as seen in L. crispa, one of the 

 parents of L.C. Nysa. The isthmus of the 

 hp shows a large area of bright yellow, while 

 the side-lobes stand well up above the 

 column. The seed was sown May loth, igi2, 

 and the first flower opened August 27th, igi6. 

 It is the second Laelio-Cattleya raised in The 

 Glebe collection. 



L.-ELIO-Cattleya Lemberg. — In describ- 

 ing this new hybrid on page 233 of our last 

 issue, Messrs. Armstrong and Brown were 

 given as the raisers. We regret to find this is 

 an error, the actual raisers being Messrs. 

 Hassall and Co., who exhibited it at the Royal 

 Horticultural Society, August 2gth, igi6.

 eburneum occurs instead of C. Parishii. The

 Swan on page 226.
