THE ORCHID WORLD. 



[March, 1915. 



Odontoglossum Dunkerque. — Thomp- 

 sonianum and Harryanum are the parents of 

 this richly coloured hybrid which has recently 

 been raised by Messrs. Sander and Sons. 



Odontioda Vivid. — One of the richest 

 coloured Odontiodas, the parents being C. 

 Noezliana and O. illustrissimum, yielding a 

 many-flowered branching spike of glowing 

 blood-red flowers. Recently exhibited by 

 Mr. J. Gurney Fowler. 



L/ELIO-CaTTLEYA FiRENZE. — Two very 

 interesting results have already appeared m 

 this hybrid between C. Fabia and L.-C. 

 Rubens, both parents being coloured varieties. 

 The first is a pure white flower having a violet 

 blotch on the front lobe of the labellum, while 

 the second has beautiful bright purple 

 segments that are broad, like those of Rubens 

 (L. pumila x C. Hardyana), but which have 

 the habit of Fabia. Raised m the collection 

 of Mr. Richd. G. Thwaites, Streatham. 



L^LlA Tendiana. — The specific name of 

 this attractive hybrid is derived from those of 

 its parents — tenebrosa and Diana (Dayana x 

 purpurata), the effect of tenebrosa giving a 

 bronzy tint to the purple colour. Raised by 

 Mr. Eustace Clark, Evershot, Dorset. 



Cattleya Camilla. — An attractive flower 

 resulting from the use of chocoensis alba and 

 Warneri alba ; the broad petals partake of the 

 habit of the former parent and are pure white, as 

 also are the sepals; the labellum slightly tinged 

 with rose. Raised by Mr. F. C. Puddle m the 

 Scampston Hall collection, Rillington, York. 



L/ELio-Cattleya Czarina. — The parents 

 of this pleasing hybrid are L.-C. Haroldiana 

 (tenebrosa x Hardyana) and C. Iris (bicolor x 

 aurea), yielding a large flower of buff-yellow 

 colour, the labellum magenta-purple, the 

 throat lined with golden-yellow. Raised m 

 the collection of Mr. W. H. St. Oumtm, 

 Scampston Hall, Rillington, York. 



L^lio-Cattleya AURATA.— The result 

 of crossing L.-C. Lydia (Cowanii x Gaskel- 

 liana) with L.-C. Golden Oriole (aurea x 

 Charlesworthii), and yielding a wide flower of 

 bright golden-yellow colour, which will no 

 doubt improve as the seedhng gams in 

 strength. Raised in the collection of Mr. F. 

 J. Hanbury, Brockhurst, East Grinstead. 



Sophro-Cattleya Andromeda. — Messrs. 

 J. and A. McBean, Cooksbridge, are the 

 raisers of this pretty hybrid between S. 

 grandiflora and C. Octave Doin. Flower of 

 rose-scarlet, the open throat yellow. 



Cymbidium Butterfly. — The result of 

 crossing Lowio-grandiflorum with insigne. 

 Polhnation was effected March 3rd, 1910, the 

 seed sown February 2nd, 1911, and in the 

 eight plants which have recently flowered 

 there is considerable variation, some taking 

 after one parental species, while others 

 resemble more closely another or a combina- 

 tion. Raised by Mr. H. G. Alexander in the 

 Westonbirt collection. 



L.^;lio-Cattleya Tydeus. — A very 

 pretty hybrid resulting from the use of C. 

 Trian^ and L.-C. Ernestii, the petals being 

 flushed with rose-purple at their tips, the 

 labellum dark crimson. Raised by Messrs. 

 Armstrong and Brown. 



L^LIO-Cattleya Jonyra. — The result of 

 crossing L. Jongheana and Laslio-Cattleya 

 Myra, yielding a rose-pmk flower, the throat 

 yellow. Raised by Messrs. Armstrong and 

 Brown. 



Dendrobium Brymerianum.
