XXXVlii PROCEEDINGS OF THE ROYAL HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY. 



Other Exhibits. 



From Baron Schroder's gardens Mr. Ballantine brought 

 Cattleya [Trainee] Schroderae alba, which the Committee re- 

 quested should be forwarded again ; also the fine and distinct 

 Odontoglossum Leeanum which was awarded a First Class Certifi- 

 cate in 1882. 



F. G. Tautz, Esq., staged a small group, comprising Den- 

 drobium chrysodiscus x , Odontoglossum naevium majus, 0. 

 blandum with two spikes, Lycaste cruenta, and some Dendrobes. 



From the Eoyal Gardens, Kew, came a fine specimen of 

 Ccelogyne pandurata, which reflected great credit on the cultiva- 

 tion of this difficult plant at that establishment ; it had a fine 

 spike of its large emerald-green flowers, the labellums being 

 marked on the prominent parts of the centre and base with black. 



Messrs. F. Sander & Co., St. Albans, staged a group of 

 Orchids in which were good specimens of Oncidium bifolium 

 majus with ten spikes, Dendrobium nobile nobilius, Oncidium 

 tetrapetalum, two showy varieties of Cattleya Trianaa, a pan of 

 Miltonia vexillaria, a fine Ccelogyne nearly related to C. 

 Cummingii, and the pretty Angrascum Germinyanum, which 

 was referred to the Scientific Committee. 



Norman C. Cookson, Esq., Wylam-on-Tyne, again exhibited 

 his hybrid Phajus Cooksoni certificated at the last meeting. 

 Eeginald Young, Esq., Fringilla, Linnet Lane, Sefton Park, 

 Liverpool (gardener, Mr. Poyntz), sent a supposed hybrid 

 Cypripedium — named C. hybridum Poyntzianum — of no great 

 beauty. It was similar in flower to that known as C. Bullenianum, 

 but it had a C. javanicum leaf. J. Charlton Parr, Esq., 

 Grappenhall Heyes, Warrington (gardener, Mr. C. J. Catt), 

 forwarded a fine spike of the major form of Angraecum 

 sesquipedale with three flowers. Messrs. Pitcher & Manda, The 

 United States Nurseries, Hextable, Kent, staged several Cypri- 

 pediums, including C. chlorops x , a C. caricinum cross nearly 

 related to C. Dominianum x ; also a form of C. Trianae with 

 brightly coloured flowers. Messrs. Hugh Low & Co., Clapton, 

 sent Phalaenopsis Schilleriano-gloriosa, a form with sepals and 

 petals like P. Schilleriana, but with the sepals marked like 

 P. Stuartiana ; the labellum has the cirrhae at the apex as in 

 P. gloriosa, and not the blunt horns of P. Schilleriana. E. Ellis,
