Other Exhibits. 



Malcolm S. Cooke, Esq., Kingston Hill (gardener, Mr. D. 

 Cullimore), staged a small but select group of Orchids, con- 

 sisting of two very highly coloured forms of Odontoglossum 

 Rossii majus, 0. nebulosum, 0. Hallii, Oncidium cucullatum, 

 Sophronitis grandiflora, and Masdevallia ignea. Also a full-size 

 photograph of a plant of Cattleya guttata Prinzii (C. amethysto- 

 glossa) which he had flowered with twenty-four flowers on a 

 spike. 



R. I. Measures, Esq., Cambridge Lodge, Camberwell (gar- 

 dener, Mr. H. Simpkins), exhibited his new hybrid Cypripedium 

 Apollo x , the result of crossing C. vexillarium x with C. Stonei. 

 The flowers, which were flushed with bright rose, were inter- 

 mediate between the two parents, but the plant being small, the 

 Committee requested to see it again. 



A. H. Smee, Esq., exhibited a good plant of Dendrobium 

 thyrsiflorum with three spikes. 



H. M. Pollett, Esq., Fernside, Bickley, sent what was said 

 to be Odontoglossum luteo-purpureum sceptrum, differing from 

 the type by having a white ground. The variety seemed to be a 

 form of 0. Wilckeanum. 



Messrs. James Veitch & Sons, Royal Exotic Nurseries, 

 Chelsea, sent their form of Cattleya calummata x , and a new 

 Cypripedium obtained between C. Philippinense and C. villosum, 

 not yet strong enough to show its character. 



Sir Trevor Lawrence, Bart., M.P., sent Masdevallia Arminii, 

 Oncidium phymatochilum, Dendrobium sulcatum, and a grand 

 cut inflorescence of Phalsenopsis grandiflora. 



F. Lee, Esq., Lyndford Hall, Mundford, sent two fine cut 

 spikes of the rare Cymbidium chloranthum, with numerous pale 

 greenish yellow flowers marked with purple on the lip.
