L/ELIO-CATTLEYA “LADY WIGAN.” Unflowered. Seedling. 
The “ Gardener’s Magazine,” June 5tli, 1897. Extract. “ Undoubtedly this 
was the finest hybrid in the Temple Show, and possibly the most 
interesting orchid. The flowers are very handsome, three large ones 
being produced on a stout spike. The sepals and petals are of a delicate 
blush shade, the latter being very broad and slightly drooping; all these 
segments measured four inches in length. The big labellum has a 
creamy white tube, and a blush white spreading apex, measuring two 
inches and a half across. The throat is pale yellow, while in front are 
a number of rays of deep violet purple that are finely shown up on the 
pale and delicate ground colour ; the violet purple rays shade into 
crimson where they reach the yellow throat. This fine hybrid is the 
result of a cross between Lselia purpurata Eusselliana with Cattleya 
Mossise aurea. First-class certificate Temple and Manchester Show, 
1897."

Described “ Orchid Review,” Vol. 4, page 325.

present it most resembles the mother plant, though rather stouter 
in habit.
