_Adonis._--Bright rosy petals--sepals paler--lip and edges of lobes carmine.
_F. Sander._--The latest pseudo-bulb measures 2 feet 3 inches--topping the best growth of its native forest by six inches; from base to top of the spike, 4 feet less 1 inch, and as thick as a walking-cane. This grand plant has been in cultivation for three years. The sepals and petals are those of L. e. Turneri; the lip resembles a fine L. purpurata.
The plant next to this, unnamed, has pseudo-bulbs almost as long, but scarcely thicker than straws.
_Medusa._--Tall, slender pseudo-bulbs--very dark.
_Neptune_, on the contrary, has pseudo-bulbs short and fat, whilst the colouring is pale.
_H. E. Moojen._--Doubtless a natural hybrid with L. purpurata, which takes equally after both parents.
_Godseffiana._--Nearly white; the broad lip carmine--lobes of the same hue, widely expanded.
_Mrs. F. Sander._--A round flower, very dark rose; sepals and petals dotted all over, as in Cattleya Leopoldii.
_Red King._--Yellowish throat. Lip good colour and round, but narrow, without the prolongation of some or the lateral extension of others. Curiously like the shape of L. Perrinii.
_Stella._--Dusky rose and similarly spotted, but different in shape--sepals and petals much thinner.
_Boadicea._--Sepals and petals deep rose. Long shovel lip crimson-lake.
_H. G. Gifkins._--The sepals are palest green, with a rosy tinge; petals pale mauve. The lip, maroon-crimson, spreads out broadly from a neck almost half an inch long, and its deep colour stretches right up the throat.
_Mrs. R. H. Measures._--Pure white, even the lip, except a touch of purple-crimson in the centre and slender crimson veins.
_L.-C. Harold Measures._--A fine hybrid of L.e. Blenheimensis and Catt. superba splendens, which takes mostly after the former in colouring, the latter in shape. It is a round flower, with a crimson lip immensely broad; two small yellow spots are half concealed beneath the tube. Sepals greenish tawny, petals dull pink with crimson lines.
_Sade Lloyd._--A very pretty form. Sepals and petals rosy, tinted with fawn colour. The crimson lip is edged with a delicate white line, as are the lobes, which fold completely over the tube.
_Doctor Ryan_ is distinguished by a very long protruding lip.
