THE DAVIDSON ANNUAL CUP. 



The Council have accepted the kind offer of an annual silver Cup from 

 E. H. Davidson, Esq., of Borlases, Twyford. 



In 191^ it will be awarded in Open Competition at the Society's Spring 

 Show at Chelsea, on May 20 to 22, for the " Finest Cattleya, not a hybrid, 

 in the Show." 



The decision of the Council is final, and the Cup may be altogether 

 withheld at their discretion. 



The Council will not award this high distinction unless satisfied and 

 assured that the Exhibit is, in the main, due to the work and capability 

 of the Exhibitor or his employees ; on this point the Council may consult 

 any expert not competing for the Cup. 



The Council may reserve decision till the third day of the Show. 



The attention of intending exhibitors is particularly directed to the 

 Society's 1911 Code of " Eules for Judging."
