Odontoglossum crispum Harold 
There are several crimson-red spots on the lateral sepals of 
this variety, and fewer on the dorsal sepal. The petals are 
sometimes, entirely spotless. The lip has numerous deep chest¬ 
nut-red spots round the crest. The rest of the flower is pure 
white. Award of Merit, N. C. Cookson, Esq. (gardener, Mr. 
H. J. Chapman), Oakwood, Wyhun-on-Tyne. 
Dendrobium glomeratum 
The stems of this fine Dendrobe are somewhat lengthy, and 
bear a. few clusters of flowers near the top. The sepals and 
petals of the variety shown by Messrs. Hugh 
Low and Co., Bush Hill Park, Enfield, were of 
an intense rose purple, being much darker 
than we have hitherto seen them. The lip 
is tongue-like and scarlet. Award of Merit. 
Odontoglossum wattianum crawshayanum. 
The supposed parentage of this natural 
hybrid was lindleyanum x harryanum. The 
sepals are bronzy-chocolate, with a few yellow 
streaks across them. The petals have more 
numerous streaks, but are otherwise similar. 
The lip is pale yellow, with a rich crimson 
blotch above the crest ; the claw of the lip 
resembles lindleyanum, but is broader ; the 
whole aspect of the flower is suggestive of the 
parents named. Award of Merit, de B. Craw- 
shay, Esq. (gardener, Mr. W. J. Stables), Rose- 
field, Sevenoaks.

rosy-white, with a large, blotch on the centre 
of each sepal. The petals have more 
numerous and smaller blotches, while the lip 
has a large chestnut blotch in front of the
