few small pale brown spots on the centre. The petals are of 
a peculiar brownish-red, passing into white at the tips and 
base. The lip is yellow on. thei lower half, wdth a reddish- 
brown blotch on the upper third of its length on a -white

Laeliocattleya Henry Greenwood Imperator. 
Thei parentage of this splendid hybrid variety was Lc. schil- 
leriana, x C. hardyana. Tire sepals and petals are of soft pink, 
though the latter are really the darker of the two set®. Tire 
lip is crimson with a purple edge, while the tube ha® yellow, 
white, and blush shading, with a central purple band along 
the interior, while the outside is pale and veined with deeper 
rose lines. The lip is really the largest and most effective 
portion, of this fine flower. First-class Certificate of Messrs. 
F. Sander and Son®, St. Albans. 
Cattleya triumphans. 
The parentage of this hybrid was dowiana aurea x Rex. Thei 
sepals and petals are creamy-white, while the lip is also pale 
or mostly white, but has a large purple blotch on the lamina., 
with an orange blotch on each side, while the interior of the 
tube is. lined with crimson and gold. The light colour of the 
flower, and especially the shape, is evidently largely due to 
C. Rex. Award of Merit to Messrs. F. Sander and Sons. 
Laelia crispo-brosa. 
Thei parentage in this case was L. crispa. x temebrosia, the 
name being made up of a portion, of tire name of each of the 
parents. The sepals and petals are blusli-coloured, while the 
lip ha® a deep rose lamina, and the usual characteristic veining 
in, the tube of the same. Award of Merit to Messrs. F. Sander

tificate to Messrs:. F. Sander and Sons. 
Dendrobium bellatulum.

FLORAL COMMITTEE. 
Rose C. J. Grahame. 
The blooms of this Hybrid Tea variety are cup-shaped, very 
sweetly scented, and of rich velvety crimson. This is certainly 
a great advance upon the darker coloured varieties which! 
have hitherto appeared amongst the Hybrid Teas, and will 
be appreciated by cultivators when it, gets widely distributed.

co. Down, Ireland.

Here, again, werhave a Hybrid Tea Rose, but in this instance

with a white centre. It, will be useful for garden decoration. 
Award of Merit to Mr. F. W. Flight, Cornstiles, Twyford, 
Hants. 
Alpinia Sauderae. 
In this we have a plant that to some extent recalls' the 
Hedychium, but ini its variegation, moire particularly Plirynium 
variegatum. In this instance the plant is of much more easy 
cultivation, grows 2 ft. to 3 ft. high, and the stems are amply 
furnished with linear leaves of a bright green, freely striped 
with white. A large plant of it is therefore a very handsome 
object, and will make a, useful stove foliage subject. First- 
class Certificate to Messrs. F. Sander and Sons. 
Glaucium flavum tricolor. 
This variety of the Horn Poppy has flowers of an intense 
coppery-red, with a darker blotch at the base of each petal. 
It will make a, useful subject for ordinary culture in the her¬ 
baceous border. Award of Merit to Messrs. R. Wallace and 
Co., Kilnfield Gardens, Colchester.
