Award of Merit. 



To Iris ' Cantab ' (votes, i6 for), from Messrs. H. Chapman, Ltd., 

 Rye. A charming dwarf Iris raised by E. A. Bowles, Esq., M.A., 

 F.L.S. The flowers are slightly fragrant and resemble those of 

 /. Krelagei in form. They are pale blue in colour, while a spotted 

 orange ridge occupies the middle of each fall. The leaves, which are 

 about 6 inches high at flowering time, just overtop the flowers. This 

 Iris is said to be very prolific and of good constitution. (Fig. 30.) 



To Rhododendron Mottpinense (votes, 25 for), from Miss Willmott, 

 V.M.H., F.L.S. (gr. Mr. Fielder, V.M.H.), Great Warley. A dwarf 

 hardy species introduced from China by Mr. E. H. Wilson, V.M.H. 

 The leaves are leathery in texture and ovate in shape, measuring 



1 inch broad. They are dark green above and pale green below. The 

 flowers, which are remarkably large for so dwarf a species, measure 



2 inches across and are creamy white in colour, while the conspicuous 

 anthers are dull red. This plant appears to be admirably adapted 

 for the rock garden. (Fig. 31.)
