“Highlights of Orchid History”
The following compilation of orchid historic facts are the result of a period of research undertaken by the then Show Secretary of the North of England Orchid Society during 1990-1993 spending three to four hours daily researching orchid literature, local libraries and archive records in addition to similar institutions farther afield from his home in Cheshire, England; at a time when he was almost single-handedly nursing an invalid wife who unfortunately departed life on earth some six months before the result of such research formed the basis for the staging of the society's award winning exhibit at the 14th. World Orchid Conference at Glasgow in April-May 1993. Since that time further research remained ongoing and additions to the original work have and are still being effected.
This publication is presented dealing with the pre-historic period Before Christ (B.C.); through to “to Date”; in datal - year by year order. In addition a number of "Pen Portraits" of orchid worthies of yesteryear listing their contribution to orchids and in the case of hybridisers; lists of their registered creations in addition to such portraits being somewhat personalised.
The whole provides much history within the covers of a single comprehensive document, in the opinion of the researcher/compiler; not as yet available; despite such a document being necessary as a useful additional resource for orchidists interested in historic detail and future students of orchidology and horticulture in general.
It is dedicated to the memory of Florence Gertrude Rigby who despite being critically ill for the period January 1990 to October 1992 gave some practical help with necessary research and a great deal of encouragement knowing that she would probably not witness the final resultant exhibit for which the study was first undertaken.

HIGHLIGHTS OF ORCHID HISTORY.
130000000 Years Ago: The Cretaceous Period:
Noted for the demise of the dinosaurs and the development of flowering plants
1000 - 600BC: The earliest references to orchids would appear to be from China where the earliest
Cymbidiums were known as "Lan" a word used to also mean "superior man";
elegant woman"; addition to "strong"; "virile"; and "beautiful".
"Lan" often appeared in "love poems" and songs of the early dynasties, and was often
used as a name for both men and women:
"Yeuk Lan" - resembling an orchid.
"Lan Fong" - the fragrance of an orchid.
"Tin Lang" - heavenly orchid.
"Sau Lan" - good orchid.
Chinese art and later Japanese art often featured orchids alongside birds - again the Cymbidium is evident. Such art work is perhaps the earliest form of written communication; continuing for many centuries.
551 - 479 BC: Confucius said "Acquaintance with good men is likened to entering a room full of Lan".
Lan being the Chinese name for "Fragrant Orchid". He was familar with Cym.ensifolium,
Cym. pumilum and others of that time.
372 - 285 BC: Theophrastus - Greek writer, philosopher and scientist who followed his master Aristotle
as Head of the Peripatetic School at Athens - described orchids in his "Enquiry into Plants".
He wrote two botanical treatii.
280 - BC: Bletilla hyacinthina was described alongside a Dendrobium species by Emperor Shen Nung, in his "Material Medica”.
250 - 233 BC: Emperor Shi-Kotei following the advice of his physician, placed an orchid, believed to be
Cymbidium ensifolium in the quarters of the Empress Yohki-Hi after some years of a childless marriage. The plant developed a spike of thirteen flowers - the Empress conceived the first of thirteen fine “lan” sons.
HIGHLIGHTS OF ORCHID HISTORY.
0003 AD: Ki Han, Chinese Minister of State described Cymbidium ensifolium & Dendrobium moniliforme.
0030 AD: "Shou Wen Chieh Tzu" the earliest reference on Chinese etymology, compiled by Hsu Shen defined an orchid as a fragrant plant
0040 AD: Dioscorides - (0040-0090) - Greek physician in his " De Materia Medica "; possibly the first
written evidence of orchids outside the Orient, commented on the usefulness of orchids as a
determinant of the sex of offspring: Ingestion of dried tubers by woman to give female progeny whereas the ingestion of fresh tubers by man would produce male offspring.
O420 AD "Hou Han Shu" another early reference recording the history of the Han Dynasty provides further
evidence of the meaning of "Lan". Young chinese living on the slopes of the Tapa Shan mountain
range would when walking up to the headwaters of the Chen and Wei rivers to call back the soul
and to tune to the emotion of the animal spirit, collect and adorn themselves with fragrant plants -
often orchids in flower to warn off evils which they believed to be living amongst the trees
encountered en route. Orchids used for this purpose were also called Lan, in this case as a verb
meaning to stop evil becoming something or someone during their mission. It can therefore be said that the word Lan springs from the verb - to check.
1233 AD The first book on orchids - "Chin Chang Lan Pu" describes twenty-two orchids, mainly cymbidiums.
The author - Choo Shih Keng was from the Fukien Province the then cultural centre for orchids.
1247 AD The second book on orchids - "Lan Pu" by Wang Kuei-Lsueh also of Fukien Province described
thirty-seven orchids, gave full cultural details and stated that the orchid is a symbol of the perfect
personality and the quality of a superb person.
1368/1644 AD: Ming Dynasty - many references to the use of orchids as herbs:-
Cymbidium for rheumatism, neuralgia & venereal diseases.
Gomesa crispa for stomach upsets; diarrhoea; fevers; boils; abscesses and sick elephants
Vanilla - (100 species) for flavouring.
General use for pigments; colouring and perfumery.
1400-1800AD Further references in Chinese and later Japanese history.
1427 AD: Vanilla planifolia - fruits (seed pods) used to flavour "chocolat" a Mexican drink made from cacao and honey. This species has over the years become the only orchid to be agri./horticulturally valuable. It has become commercially viable earning thousands of dollars from food favouring outlets. This success may not come about had not Edmund Albius, a slave of Ferre’ol Bollier-Beaumont,devised a method of the ‘hand pollination’ of flowers of this species, which; wither and die within four or five hours after opening early in the day.
Edmund Albius was a young teenager when he discovered the technique, he was freed from bondage by his
master, and eventually left his employment trying other ways of earning a living. It is recorded that he died
destitute at 51 years of age on 26th.August 1880.
(Other entries re Vanilla planifolia appear under: 1532; 1552; 1754 and 1768)

Orchis simia - (Monkey orchid)
" mascula
Himantoglossum hircinum - (Lizard orchid)
Serapias vomeracae
“ lingua
Dactylorrhiza majali
" " folioza
1552 AD: Orchids in Medicine - The first American book on medicinal plants "Badiano Codex" by Martin de la Cruz - Aztec Physician, referred to Vanilla planifolia as a useful herb for the
treatment of: hysteria; fevers; impotence; rheumatism; and to increase the
energy of muscular systems:
Encyclia citrina - used by natives on infected wounds
Laelia autumnalis - used for coughs.
Stanhopea hernandezii - used for sunstroke.
Arpophyllum spicatum, Bletia catenulat, Cranichis speciosa
and Epidendrum pastoris were all used for dysentery.

Central Mexico. During 1882 Kunthre described the same species and named it Anguloa - hernandezii and in 1918 Schlechter transferred this to Stanhopea hernandezii - the first authentic
name after almost three hundred years.
1663 AD: Orchids in Medicine - Gerard made further reference to orchids being used as herbals to aid
fertility & virility

Continent by Dutch navigators. It was Sir. J. Banks who named “Botany Bay”.
1730 Orchids were included when the Royal Botanic Garden at Kew was founded, but it was not until the
bequethal of the collection of the Rev’d. John Clowes, M.A. one hundred and forty-six years later that the Royal collection could be regarded as extensive.

1816: Dominy, John. - (1816/1891
Born at Gittisham, Devon.: During 1834, after completing an apprenticeship in a private garden he
entered the nursery of Messrs. Luscombe, Price & Co. at Exeter - to move a few months later to the
nurseries of Messrs. Veitch also at Exeter where he stayed for seven years before becoming Head Gardener
to a Mr. Magor at Redruth, Cornwall during 1841
Five years later he transferred to the Chelsea Nursery of Messrs. Veitch where he remained until ill heath
forced him to retire during 1880
He died on 12/2/1891 and was interred at Exeter.
During 1854 a Mr. Harris suggested to Dominy the possibility of hybridising. Dominy crossed
Cattleya - guttata with Cattleya - loddegesii and a little later Calanthe - masuca with Calanthe - furcata.
Some time later the second cross he had made flowered and thus became the first man-made orchid hybrid.
On seeing this Dr. Lindley remarked "You will drive the botanist's mad”.
The hybrid was named Calanthe Dominii after the hybridiser.
The cattleya cross Dominy made was also successful and became known as Cattleya hybrida.
Dominy produced the following hybrids also:
Aerides - hybrida (Aer. affine x Aer. fieldingii)
Anaectomaria Dominii (Antchs. roxburghii x Haemaria. discolor - now known as Ludisia discolor.)
Calanthe Veitchii (Cal. rosea x Cal. vestita.)
Cattleya Brabantiae ( C. loddigesii x C. aclandiae.)
Cattleya Dominiana (C. intermedia x C. maxima.)
Cattleya quinquecolor ( C. aclandiae x C. forbesii.)
Cypripedium Harrisianum ( Cyp. villosum x Cyp. barbatum ) - (First Cypripedium hybrid.)
Cypriprdium vexillarium (Cyp. barbatum x Cyp.Fairrieanum
Laeliocattleya Devoniense ( L. crispa x C. leopoldii.)
" Dominiana ( L. purpurata x C. dowiana.)
" Exoniensis ( L. crispa x C. Mossiae ) - (First intergeneric hybrid - 1863.)
" Felix ( L. crispa x C. Schilleriana)
" Veitchiana ( L. crispa x C. labiata)
Macromaria Domini (Haemaria discolour x Macodes petola. )
Phaio-Calanthe irrorata ( Ph. gandifolius x Cal. vestita. )
Selenipedium Dominianum ( Sel. caricinum x Sel. caudatum)
(Refer to full list on page 34)
Since Dominy's time very many hybrids have been raised within genera and between genera, we now have
multi-generic factors in the parentage of many modern hybrids which are being raised and registered at a rate of
something in the order of two thousand plus per annum
An apt memorial to the man who produced the first man assisted hybrid orchid.

1856: Cypripedium Ignotum - (tonsum x ? ) flowered n the collection of Oswald Osmond Wrigley of Bridge Hall,
Bury, Lancashire as a result of insect pollinatiom, hence the lack of the name of the pollen O.O. Wrigley did not register this for some time later, otherwise this founder member of the
Manchester Orchid Society may have been credited with the creation of the first hybrid in
cultivated orchids. Since an insect was involved, this; cannot be considered man-made;
therefore entries in Orchid History re Dominy are correct. ( refer to pen portrait of `The

Despite massive importations of Odontoglossum species into the U.K. during the period 1876 -1896; as many
as 100,000 per annum of Odm. crispum alone; - hybridisation between the species was slow to start. Species used in
the earliest hybrids were Odms. crispum; harryanum; triumphs; pescatorei; luteo-purpureum & halli.
Almost as soon as crosses between the species of the genus appeared successful hybrids between other genera
with Odontoglossum were brought about:- The first - Odopetalum: (Odontoglossum x Zygopetalum in 1895.).
Following a period of nine years other intergenerics began to appear:
Odontioda - (Odontoglossum x Cochlioda) 1904.
Odontonia - ( " “ x Miltonia ) 1905.
Odontocidium ( “ " x Oncidium ) 19ll.
After 1911 when the first tri-generic Odont. Hybrid - Odontiodonia using Odontoglossum x Cochlioda x Miltonia) was created and steady progress was made using Odontoglossum with many other genera -some forty plus times this century.
We now have bi; tri; quad; quin; hex;sept; and nona genera from many combinations in the make up of complex
hybrids. How far can this go?

By the end of the nineteenth century a further 1012 genera (species) had become known; within each were from a few to hundreds specific epithets; in addition some 1010 orchid hybrids were known to science, sixty-eight were Bi-generic and five were Tri-generic; the remainder consisted of a few Natural Hybrids and hybrids within genera. Names etc. can be found in the ‘List of Generic Names of Orchid Species’ and ‘List of Generic Names of Orchid Hybrids’ which appear later in this document.
At the turn of the century as hybridising between genera was increasing and collecting from the natural habitat was diminishing; orchidists turned their attention to the tongue twisting names ensuing from the creation of multi-generic hybrids from genera with names which were difficult to all but Latin Scholars. It was then decided to use other names,
Usually the name of the creator; then adding “ara” e.g. :- Adamsara; Burrageara; Linneara; Vuylsteakeara etc.
A further one hundred and thirty genera (species) became known during the last twenty years of the 19th.Century.
HIGHLIGHTS OF ORCHID HISTORY.
1900: Disa Watsonii - from D. Kewensis x D. uniflora. The 6th Disa hybrid. Raised at Kew Royal Botanic Garden.
1900: Angraecopsis - genus: Established by F. Kraenzlin and re-viewed by V.S.Summerhayes - 1951.
1900: At the turn of the Century separate houses for warm; intermediate and cool culture were advocated.
1900: Some say that fact is stranger than fiction, this would appear to be true in that but a single intergeneric orchid hybrid was registered during 1900-1901. The one registered is given in “The Handbook on Orchid Nomenclature and Registration “ 4th. Edition as “Sophrocatlaelia in Orch. Rev.8: 354 (1900)” - what is strange is the fact that there is no such entry in Sanders’ List under the same heading. Sanders’ List to 1946 does however give the following under `Sophrolaeliocattlya’ - Slc. Eros (Lc. elegans (Turneri) x S. grandiflora) as egistered by Charlesworth during 1909.The Orchid Review reference reads “Messrs. Charlesworth and Co., of Heaton, Bradford, have succeeded in raising a most charming little hybrid, which, under the name of Sophrolaelia x Eros - (Lc.), received a First-class Certificate from the R.H.S. on October 23rd. The name, however, raises a rather curious question. The parents are recorded (at page 348) to have been Laelio-cattleya elegans and Sophronitis grandiflora, and the corresponding hybrid between the latter and Laelio-cattleya x Schilleriana was called Sophrocattleya x Veitchii. Neither of these names are strictly indicative of the origin of these hybrids, in whose parentage three genera are concerned. The case of Brassocatlaelia affords an analagous example, that hybrid being derived from Brasso-cattleya – Lindleyana a Natural hybrid and Laelio-cattleya x elegans, and following this precedent it appears to me that the two plants above mentioned must be called Sophrocatlaelia x Veitchi and Sophrocatlaelia x Eros. This indicates both their origin and affinity, for as named at present they would appear to be different in their generic origin instead of being identical. Specifically, even, the two are very nearly allied, for they agree in being composed of Sophronitis grandiflora 1/2 (one half) and Laelia purpurata 1/4 (one quarter); the difference is that the remaining fourth of S. x Veitchii was derived from Cattleya intermedia and of S. x Eros from C. Leopoldi. Both are charming little plants.” Signed: “Argus”
1901: Mendel, Gregor (Johann) - 1822/1884: 1901 marked the re-discovery of Mendel's work on the inheritance of
characters. Mendel is believed to be the founder of the science of genetics.
1901: 1st. edition of “Sanders Orchid Guide” appeared.
1902: Cymbidium hybrids: The first cymbidium hybrids of the twentieth century appeared, three in number after a
lean period of ten years:-
Cym. Lowio-grandiflorum from Cym.Lowianum x Cym. grandiflorum. Veitch.
Cym. Lowio-Mastersii “ Cym.Lowianum x Cym.Mastersii. Charlesworth.
Cym. Wiganianum “ Cym.eburneum x Cym.Tracyanum. McBean.
(Cym Wiganianum was raised by McBean but registerd by Sir. Frederick Wigan. Bart.
A Very steady increase in cymbidium hybrids over next eighteen years yielded sixty new registrations only.
1905; 1906; 1908; 1909 and 1913 being blank years. One registration only during each of the years: 1903;
1904; 1907; 1910 and 1912; along with four during 1911; seven during 1914; nine during 1915 eleven during 1916; four during 1917; seven each during 1918 and 1919 and three during 1920.
(Note: Details of each appear under the appropriate year as shown above.)
1902: Disa Luna - from D. racemosa x D.Veitchii - the 7th Disa hybrid - Raised by Veitch.
1902: Disa Elwesii - from D. Kewensis x D. Veitchii - the 8th Disa hybrid - Raised by Elwes.

in “Gardeners Assistant”
1904: Odontioda: The first Odontioda was produced when Vuylsteke of Ghent, Belgium crossed:-

of crow flowers; nettles; daises and long purples.
That liberal shepherds give a grosser name,
But our cold maids do dead men's fingers call them".
(Note: 2: Most botanists today restrict Habenaria to the sub-tropical species which markedly differ from British/European native species.)

1913: Manchester Orchid Society: (Quote from “Orchid World” - lV/V):
On 18th.December last when one is thinking more of vegetation being in its sleep rather than at its best over
1000 well-grown orchids greeted members as they arrived for one of their fortnightly meetings at the Coal Exchange.
Members of the society have been accused of commercialism without justification. Where does the commercial spirit
find root in these amateurs who month after month spend their money and time putting up large groups of their
choicest orchids without further reward other than the edification and gratitude of their fellow members who attend
meetings?
It cannot be 'gate money' for there is none. Nor do the admiring crowds of the fashionable public of Manchester do homage to the cult. In connection with this phase, what splendid devotion has Mr. O.O. Wrigley of Bury, as shown, he presents many choice orchids at every meeting. Many times a year groups of 150 from his greenhouses are displayed reminding one of a miniature Temple Show. He has no further ambition, as he often states; than to know that he is giving pleasure to his fellow orchidists. Would that his health allow him to personally visit meetings and witness the glow of admiration that his exhibits enkindle.
The Members are good and plucky buyers; the best of everything finds its way North, first into collections then on to
the Committee Table. The new varieties of Odontoglossum and Odontioda that have recently been submitted for
awards are bewildering in their kaliedoscopic tracery of colour. So plentiful have these beautiful varieties of almost
solid colour become that the sweet round-flowered xanthes and virginal forms are a relief to the eye.
What a wealth of the newest varieties Mr. Thompson of Walton Grange, Staffordshire; must possess.
The Committee needs to have a critical eye, and a critical eye it has indeed, when a Cypripedium, the favourite orchid
of the North; appears on the table - it is balanced and turned about, and handled with tender hands, its form, outline
and colour are carefully measured and its quality discussed.
There is no hurry, there is no human respect, its merits are commended and its faults condemned.
The voting is open, by show of hands and no one is afraid of voting 'straight'.
It may be that the very love they have for their favourite 'Cyp' - its pet name, is partly the reason that
Manchester has a reputation of being easier than the Royal Horticultural Society in its awards of merit.
Manchester members cannot bear to see a plant relegated that appears to be an improvement on existing types, though
the advance be slight. Such a plant deserves recognition, which is the only encouragement the raisers and exhibitors
need and get.

Pescatorei by a Mr. J. Adamson - member of the Manchester & North of England Orchid Society and not registered during 1926 as Adaglossum citrinum. McBeans made a second attempt at crossing these genera to produce Adcgm. nanum from Ada. aurantiaca x Odm. Phoebe and registering this in 1919.

Type species: Cymla. flabellata.
1919: Professor Lewis Knudson (1884-1958) – America, commenced his study of and work on the asymbiotic
germination of orchid seeds. (Refer to articles under 1922.)
1919: Cymbidium Argo: Hybrid raised by Hamilton Smith from: Cym. erythrostylum x Cym. Winnianum.
1919: Cymbidium Brownie: Hybrid raised by Col. Holford from: Cym. Lowgrinum x Cym. Parishii sanderae.

1920: Cymbidium Ariel: Hybrid raised by Hamilton Smith from: Cym. Ballianum x Cym. eburneo-Lowianum.
1920: Cymbidium Ostrich: Hybrid raised by Col. Holford from: Cym. Gottianum x Cym Wiganianum.

of this period. In all eighteen Bi-gen.; seven Tri-gen. and two Quad-generic hybrids were regisered. 1914 and
1916 were blank years.
Perhaps the incidence and effects of the 1914-18 Great War had something to do with this. It is known that very many collections (particularly warm growing specimens) were lost due to lack of coal for heating etc.

Oda. Charlesworthii.
1922: Professor Lewis Knudson – (1884 – 1958) – Professor of Plant Physiology – Cornell University.
Much of what follows under this heading as been extracted from an article by Professor Joseph Arditti -
in Lindleyana – The Scientific Journal of the American Orchid Society – Vol. 5, No.1 – March 1990, and other publications listed below:
Lewis Knudson is probably best remembered by orchidologists for his development and introduction of the most
commonly used medium for the asymbiotic germination of orchid seeds known to this day as ‘Knudson C’
His development of aseptic culture of orchid seeds ‘in vitro’ is without doubt the most important single factor of
The 20th. Century that as led to man assisted germination and production of orchid species no longer available from their natural habitat; of specific good clones from yesteryear, and of many thousands of orchid hybrids now
being created by all and sundry to say little of the ever increasing ‘Pot Plant’ trade.
One blessing of such trade is that prices of individual plants (species and hybrids) are now such, that the average working man or amateur gardener/collector is able to acquire orchids year round or in the case of collectors built up a sizeable collection of species and hybrids from a moderate income in the interest of conservation etc.; quite apart from the joy of cultivating such beautiful plants and flowers within the home, the home garden or small greenhouse.
Knudson’s first paper on asymbiotic seed germination was in Spanish in 1921 – A translation in English followed in 1922 and heralded a new & exciting era in that success in the laboratory provided the means of science assisting nature in so far as the preservation of the species. (refer to entry under 1961 - "The Laboratory")
This also led to much good work in connection with the preservation of species no longer existent in or collectable from the wild.
He was awarded a Gold Medal by the American Orchid Society in 1922 for this work.
(Note: Anyone desirous of deeper study of asymbiotic germination should study Professor Joseph Arditti’s –
“Lewis Knudson (1884-1958): His Science, His Times, and His Legacy” – Lindleyana Vol.5,No.1. March 1990;
“An history of orchid hybridisation, seed germination and tissue culture” – Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society (1984) 89:359-381.
“Orchid micropropagation the path from laboratory to commercialisation and an account of several unappreciated investigators” by Prof. Joseph Arditti F.L.S. and Abraham D. Krikorian of the State Uviversity of
New York” – BotanicalJournal of the Linnean Society (1996),122:183-241.”) – ( Compilers opinion: Anyone
studying the above documents can be assured the it was one of L. Knudson’s students by the name of G. Rotor
who produced the first orchid by tissue culture in 1949 (Phalaenopsis species and hybrids) some fifeteen years before the Frenchman G. Morel claimed to have done so in 1964.
1922: Robbins : Commenced developmental work on meristem culture alongside Proffessor Knudson's work.
Sucess was not forthcoming until 1946 when E. Ball was successful with meristems of:-
Tropaeolum-majus and Lupinus-albas.
NOTE: Professor Georges Morel of Paris University was the first to successfully apply the meristem technique to orchid cultivation via the genus cymbidium which of course is one of the earliest genera known to science. ( Refer to 1960/1.).
1922: Disa Julia A. Stuckey: The eleventh Disa Hybrid. From Disa. uniflora x Disa. Italia. Raised by Flory and
Black. (Does not appear to have been used yet in any later hybridisation – perhaps lost to cultivation.)

Type species: Sbk. fournieriana.
1925: Sophronitella - Founded by R. Schlechter as a single species from east Brazil. Was first described by Lindley
in the Botanical Register (misc. No. 18) as Sophronitis violacea after discovery by G. Gardner
orchid hunting in the Organ Mountains near Rio de Janeiro - 1840 Considered to be different
from Gardner’s discovery. Type species: Soph.. violacea.
1925: Miltonia - Lycaena "Stamperland" FCC/RHS, AM/AOS: Primary hybrid registered by Charlesworth from: -
Milt. Lord Lamborne x Milt. Princess Margaret.
1926: Julian Constantin - claimed that asymbiotic seedlings would not bear flowers.
1926: Amesielle - genus: Until 1926 known as Angraecum philippinensis when it was transferred to present name
which was not finally confirmed until 1972 by by L.Garay.
Named after Professor Oakes Ames who established the Orchid Herbarium at Harvard University where he worked for fifty or so years contributing much to Orchidology.
1927: Burrageara: Quad-generic hybrid by Black & Flory- from: Cochlioda x Miltonia x Odontoglossum x Oncidium.
Burr. Windsor - from Odtna.Firminii x Oncda.Cooksoniae was the first. Named after
Albert C. Burrage (1859-1931) the first President of the American Orchid Society.
1927: Cypripedium: Mr. G.F. Moore of Bourton on the Water member of the Manchester & North of England
Orchid Society possessed what was at that time considered to be the Worlds finest collection of
this genus prior to his demise during 1927.
1927: Laeliocattleya: A specimen raised by Knudson using asymbiotic method of germination flowered during 1927. (Note: Julian Constantin's 1926 claim refuted).
1927: Manchester & North of England Orchid Society Secretary H. Arthur, formerly of Blackburn, took up residence at
The Bungalow, 44, Mere Rd. Blackpool.
1920-1929: Some 84 new species and 9 new generic names of hybrids became known during this period.
1930: Prof. L.Knudson reported further successes of flowering orchids grown from seed germinated via the
"in vitro" technique he had developed.
1930: Haraella - Described by Y. Kudo as a genus of two species only based on a plant owned by Yoshi Hara. Known only in Taiwan. Type species: Hal. odorata and Hal. retrocalla.

1930: Pterichis costaricensis: Described by Lindley – 1840. Little is known of this species which was believed to be
the only one of the species until 1982 when P. lea was discovered by L. Gomez & P. Jong
Gomez.
Species grow in very moist boggy areas of the Paramo, l0,000 feet above sea level.
1930: The circa 1921-30 did not witness a great deal of hybridising activity. Two years 1923 and 1930 were blank.
Some thirteen Bi-generic hybrids only were registered . A redeeming feature is perhaps the appearance of the
Third (1922) and fourth (1927) Quad-generic hybrids after a ten year period since the two in 1911. These were:
Potinara - Gratrixiae (Bc. Mrs. J. Leemann x Sl. Gratrixiae)
Burrageara - Windsor (Odtna.Firminii x Oncda.Cooksoniae)
1931: Vuylstekeara Cambria "Plush" FCC/AOS-RHS: (Vuyl.Rudra x Odm.Clonius) - created and registered by
Charlesworth & Co.
( Considered to be the most meristemed orchid todate. Many thousands have been sold as disposable “pot plants” at
Garden centres etc. in addition to serious growers. A very interesting “True Story” on this and its “sport”appears in Orchid Review-Vol. 107 No.1225 - high-lighting the high degree of variation of colour within this hybrid. )

registration. A single Quad-generic hybrid was recorded in 1944 along with 6 new species. During 1945 –1949
some 14 new generic names of species and 7 new bi-generic hybrids became known.

became known and registered. The renewed activity led to a thirty year period of exception activity.
1960: Prof. G. Morel (France) reported successful culture of an orchid shoot tip. (Meristem Culture).
1961 The Laboratory - 1899/1961:
Laboratory techniques have since 1961 assisted man in his quest for more & better orchids in two directions:
a) Seed germination & development which prior to the end of the l9th. Century was something of a mystery
few growers understood despite the reports of Salisbury in 1802; Dean Herbert in 1847; David Moor in
1849 & John Dominy from 1852.
During 1899 French botanist Noel Bernard made known his discovery that fungal infection & its presence was
necessary for successful germination. He with German botanist Hans Burgeff improved knowledge of this,
but it was not until 1922 when American botanist Lewis Knudson made known his development of techniques
of relatively simple methods, first published in a Spanish journal then re-published in the Botanical Magazine
in English a year later that the laboratory was able to influence matters. (Refer to 1922.).
Science had now taken over the mysteries of nature & thus ensured that the preservation of the species fast
becoming unobtainable from the wild was now possible, to say nothing of the commercial interest, since almost
100% of orchid seed could now be germinated & grown on in he laboratory, whereas in nature very many seed
were lost during the process of "pod burst" & consequent scattering of seed where less than an estimated 10%
came to fruition.
b) Clonal propagation beyond the division of plants & the development of dormant eyes on back bulbs came to
the fore during the 1960s'. Georges Morel, French botanist published methods of clonal propagation by means
of shoot-tip" culture, now referred to as meristem culture. He based his work on orchids on that of American
botanist Dr. E.A. Ball who had successfully propagated non-orchid plants.
Thanks to the pioneering work of scientists: Bernard; Burgeff; Knudson; Ball & Morel we now have the means of
propagating very many orchids from desirable, selected and award winning clones from seed or from a single shoot
It is interesting to note that Morel's first orchid meristem was from the genus Cymbidium one of the first orchids
known to science.

were new to science in addition and significantly to the introduction Heptad and a Nonad generics:
1990-1999: During this period 79 new genera (species) and 139 new generic names of hybrids were recorded; the most
notable of these is without doubt the creation of three Heptad hybrids – one in 1991 and two in 1995 and
one Nonad hybrid also during 1995 – details :-

Another milehouse in Orchid History to come about during the later years of the 20th. Century is the fact that the computer
appears to have taken over much of the recording of detail of both species and hybrids. However the Orchid Revue and its Supplement continue to provide detail of hybrids in printed format.
Index Kewensis appears to have gone electronic – publication of the printed version does not appear to have been published after 1995; however the Kew Botanic Garden’s Orchid Research Newsletter, published twice yearly and containing details of new species being established is available via the internet: tp://www.rbgkew.org.uk/herbarium/orchid/
Another very useful web site giving detail of both species and hybrids is: http://ww.ipni.org

No issue from this union.
The family continued through the issue of the nine children of Col. Wm. Legh Clowes and Antonia Henrietta.
The Rev.John Clowes, M.A. 1777-1846, did however have two cousins with the same fore-name and of the same calling; both were very active in the Church and remained so; he was however, considered to be more of a business man and a socialite who became prominent in local affairs and a leader of the Broughton and Cheetham Society also the Manchester Society. The locality looked upon him equally as much as they did the then Earl of Wilton of Heaton Hall, Manchester.
One of his monuments is in St. John's Church, off Wellington Street, Higher Broughton where his remains lie interred; another is Great Clowes Street linking Manchester City Centre with the Broughton area now in the neighbouring City of Salford. He inherited considerable wealth with the estate and was a generous benefactor. His influence locally, as Lord of the Manor at Broughton Old Hall was such that only large houses with spacious gardens both front and rear were permitted in the immediate area and particularly along Bury New Road which ran from the "Grove Inn" to Strangeways which was outside the Broughton estate and where very different types of property, mainly shops; became erected.
In orchid annals the Rev. John Clowes, M.A. was an ardent collector, extremely knowledgable and well able to direct his skillful grower - Mr. William Hammond who was considered not to be well educated, but; who compiled a catalogue of all orchids being grown at Broughton Old Hall, in alphabetical order giving also the place of origin.
The collection was considered by some of the leading botanists of that time to be better than the collection at Chatsworth House also that at Ston House. During 1842, when the catalogue was produced the collection was of one hundred and fifteen genera :-

The name Clowes is perpetuated by the genus Clowesii containing five species: Anguloa clowesii; Brassia clowesii; Epidendrum clowesii; Miltonia clowesii and Odontoglossum clowesii.
The collection was bequeathed to the Queen to form part of the Royal Collection at Kew Royal Botanic Garden, transported under the direction of Sir. W. Hooker, FRS. - President of the Royal Botanic Gardens to form the basis of the collection there at that time.
The following report on the Last Will and Testament appeared in the Manchester Guardian on 23rd.Dec.1846 and is reprinted :-
The Will of the Late Rev. John Clowes. M.A. - The entire collection of orchideous plants which belonged to the Rev. John Clowes M.A. of Broughton Hall, Manhester he has directed should be transferred to, and form part of the Royal Collection at Kew, and bequeaths them to Her Majesty. His collection was considered one of the finest in the Kingdom. He made his will on March 9th. last and has added five codicils, the last he made in September, a fortnight before his death. He has left various pecunary bequests to his nephews and nieces. To his sister Lady Scovell £2,000. To his sister Mrs. Frances Bradshaw £5,000 absolutely and the interest on £10,000 for life, and then to be divided among her children., also £10,000 in trust, the interest for Mrs. Eliza Bradshaw, wife of his nephew, Lieutenant-Colonel Joseph Bradshaw, and then to her children. Specific bequest of plate to his brother Legh Clowes Esq. Liberal legacies to his servants and workmen. The residue, real and personal to his nephew, the Rev. Samuel Bradshaw M.A. Rector of Grindon, Stafford, one of his executors. Besides the property in York, for which there is a separate grant of probate, the funded and personalty within the province of Canterbury, paid a duty on £35,000. The family estate, to which the deceased succeeded on the death of his elder brother, included nearly the whole of the township of Broughton with Kersal.
Patriarch of Orchid Worthies.
Born on July 11th.1811 at the home of his mothers parents at Redival, near Bury, Lancashire; later to move with his parents, John and Elizabeth to Knypersley Hall, Staffordshire, where he was reared.
His grandfather, also named James; had acquired the Knypersley and nearby Biddulph Vicarage estates during 1810 whilst building up a family fortune as an ironmonger in Manchester, starting with £4,000 advanced by his father and progressing to the ownership of an iron foundry and mill for drawing wire, also an interest in an iron furnace and collieries at Dukinfield, Cheshire; and an ironworks at Acton Bridge, Cheshire. In addition he was the largest importer of Swedish and Russian iron in the country.
During the 1780's grandfather James formed a liaison with William Sherratt, a successful engineer, forming a partnership which built an extensive ironworks in Salford producing steam engines which rivalled those of Matthew Bolton and James Watt of Soho, near Birmingham. Bateman & Sherratt also produced steam engines, boilers and a wide range of iron products in a factory at Shelton in the Potteries. His interests were not only confined to iron and coal, he constructed three large cotton mills in Manchester and a range of warehouses known as Bateman's Building. He later joined the Banking House of his life long friend, a Mr. Wilson and spent the latter part of his life in his native Westmorland.
The estates at Knypersley and Biddulph had been acquired for their mineral and industrial prospects, containing plentiful reserves of coal at the Childerplay Colliery, later known as Victoria Pit. James Bateman was brought up amid delightful countryside surrounding the estates which are in close proximity, with parents more interested in country pursuits than in coal and iron which led to the leasing of the colliery to Robert Heath during 1857. Heath became a successful iron and coal master and eventually acquired Biddulph Grange also.
John, the father of James, played a leading role in the local community; maintaining the fabric of St. Lawrence's Church, Biddulph; of which he was patron. He helped to finance the "toll" road which improved travel between Manchester and the Potteries. He supplied daily soup to those in need and the unemployed and he served as the High Sheriff of Staffordshire and was patron of local Learned and Philanthropic societies.
It is no wonder that James Bateman developed an early love of flowers and gardens under the guidance of his mother at Knypersley. His interest in orchids began when he was merely eight years of age, in a country lane when walking with his mother who told him that the distinctive flower he had focussed his attention to was orchis mascula somewhat abundant thereabout. He became fascinated with both the and the flower with spotted leaves and speckled flower.
Ten or so years later when a student at Magdalen College, Oxford he visited Fairburn's nursery to be confronted with Renathera coccinea - which sealed what was to become a deep and lasting interest in orchids. He acquired this plant, which was a division of one growing in the garden of Prince Leopold (later King of the Belgians) at Bushey Park, Hertfordshire. During 1832, when twenty-one years old, he met George Loddiges of Hackney at a meeting of the Horticultural Society and commenced building up a collection.
In 1833, whilst still a student at Oxford, with the help of his father he engaged Thomas Colley - Fairburn's foreman, to search for and collect orchids from British Guiana. Colley sent some sixty species to Knypersley Hall - twenty or so of which were new to science; and included Oncidium lanceanum which had driven collectors mad when it was first discovered in Surinam by J.H. Lance, a barrister and long time acqaintance.
Colley, knowing that F. Henchman, on a similar mission for Low's Clapton Nursery, was only a few days behind him, stripped a heavily populated tree of Oncidium lanceanum bare; very much with the later approval of his sponsor who some time later stated without regret "That this species had not been found in British Guiana before or since". It is recorded that many of his U.K. confederates were "prepared to go down on bended knee for a bit, offering their greatest
treasures in exchange”.
At the same time, the son of a Scottish clergyman - George Ure Skinner who had a trading company in Guatemala, was encouraged by one John Gould to take an interest in the birds of that Country. When John Bateman saw some of these birds, which Skinner had sent to the Natural History Museum in Manchester, he immediately despatched a letter suggesting that he (Skinner) also took an interest in the flora of Guatmela particularly plants akin to the sketches he enclosed with his letter. Very soon afterwards the first very carefully packed consignment of many orchids arrived at Knypersley Hall, all were at that time unknown to science. The young Bateman requested Dr. Lindley to name one of the discoveries after Skinner - Barkeria skinneri – by which name the species is still known. Another plant from this first consignment was Odontoglossum bictoniense - the first plant of this species to arrive in the U.K. alive, it flowered in the collection of Lord Rolle of Bicton, having been passed to his Lordship by the generous Bateman who continued to received orchids from Skinner.
Most of the forty orchids illustrated and described in John Bateman's "Orchidaceae of Mexico and Guatemala" the largest ever botanical book (an elephant folio); also one of the most magnificent; had been collected by Skinner.
Bateman was twenty-six years old when the first part of the book was published in 1837. Its appearance firmly established his reputation at home and abroad, as a botanist; and was more than likely instrumental in his election as a Fellow of the Royal Society. Five additional parts of the book appeared at intervals over the next five or six years. All but three of the colour plates were from paintings by Mrs. Augusta Withers - Flower Painter in Ordinary to Queen Adelaide - (Dowager Queen from June 1837) . The remaining paintings were by a Miss Drake. One hundred and twenty-five copies only were produced.
James Bateman made many orchid friends at home and abroad and visited those at home resulting in the naming of many of the orchids he was receiving from Skinner in their honour:
Oncidium cavendishianum - after the 6th. Duke of Devonshire said to have the largest collection in the world
at Chatsworth House. Derbyshire. Some thirty or so miles from Knypersley Hall.
Cycnoches egertonianum - after Sir. Philip Grey Egerton.
Epidendrum stamfordianum - after the Earl of Stamford of Enville - Staffordshire and Dunham Massey,
Cheshire.
Stanhopea mantiana - after the Professor in Munich.
Cattleya skinneri - named by Lindley to commemorate both William Cattley and George Ure Skinner.
On receipt of a copy of the prospectus of Bateman's book the Duke of Devonshire wrote "I cannot express to you how much I am delighted by your spendid work, or how grateful I am to you for having named such a beautiful orchid after me".
James Bateman's influence in orchid circles continued to flourish and sometime around 1835 his friend and fellow collector the Rev. J.T. Huntley of Huntingdonshire informed him that he wished to dispose of his collection for monetary reasons. Bateman suggested to the Duke of Devonshire that Huntley's orchids were worth acquisition and that his friend did not wish to see them split up amongst nurserymen and resold. Bateman knew that at least fifty of Huntley's species were not in the Duke's collection, also that many of them were rare species unlikely to become available for some time. This entrepreneurial action, probably inherited from his grandfather; led to an exchange of correspondence between the Duke and Huntley resulting in Paxton, the Duke's gardener, being sent to Kimbolton, returning to Chatsworth and advising the Duke to pay the requested sum of £500. The Duke offered £400, to be increased later to £500 to be paid over three years. John Gibson the Duke's collector travelled to Kimbolton to transfer the entire collection.
It is also recorded that the Duke and Bateman exchanged many plants in addition to orchids. Large tropical fruit bearing trees which had outgrown the stove at Knypersley were transferred to the Great stove at Chatsworth around November 12th. 1841. John Gibson was paid £5.16s.4d. expenses for this task according to the Chatsworth day book.
At the age of twenty-seven James Bateman married Maria Sibylla, daughter of the Rev. Rowland Egerton -Warburton of Norley Bank, Northwich, Cheshire on April 24th.1838. The Egerton -Warburtons were one of Cheshires most distinguished families with strong gardening tradition and experience, his bride was no exception and other members of her family had been responsible for notable gardens at Tatton and Oulton Parks. Maria Sibylla's particular interest was in herbaceous plants, roses, lilies and ferns.
The first years of the marriage were spent at Knypersley Hall with his parents and they jointly did much pleasing work in the gardens and grounds. The stoves contained many tropical rarities in addition to John's extensive collection of orchids ably cared for during his absence by his gardener John Sherratt.
The first child of the marriage, named John; was born in 1839, followed by Rowland during 1840 with Robert and Katarine following.
After Rowland's birth James and Maria Sibylla moved from Knypersley Hall to the Biddulph Vicarage Estate acquired along with Knypersley by his grandfather. The residences of these adjoining estates are in the order of two miles distance. The house into which they moved stood on the site of a nearby farm or grange which at one time had belonged to Hulton Abbey - which has something to do with the name Biddulph Grange by which name the house and garden are still known. This house was the Biddulph Vicarage, previously occupied by his uncle the Rev. William Holt - Vicar of Biddulph 1831 until 1873 who had recently moved into a smaller house in Hurst Road, Biddulph.
It appears that James and his wife set about altering and extending the vicarage property at various times to become the Italian style mansion overlooking the extensive and remarkable garden he and his wife created. It would appear that his collection of orchids remained in the stove at Knypersley Hall.
The Batemans were greatly assisted in their task by Edward Cooke who Bateman had met during 1847 at Kew. Cooke also fell under the spell of orchids. Bateman and Cooke met and became friendly with Nathaniel Ward an enthusiastic grower of ferns; their association led to the adaption of growing cases to become known as Wardian Cases for the cultivation of orchids, which allowed many orchid lovers without "stoves" to grow their treasures in the home.
James and his wife were both deeply religious; their son Rowland devoted his life to the Church as a missionary and eventually returning to his native Biddulph to become the Vicar.
Bateman sold his first collection of orchids to raise money with which to build the Church and school of St. John the Evangelist at Knypersley and quickly built up a second collection of orchids. He also built the Church and Parsonage at nearby Biddulph Moor and he was for some time the patron of the Church of St. Lawrence at Biddulph. He was an active local preacher and some of his sermons were published. He believed that Rome was iniquitous and that Darwin , with whom he took issue in his introduction to his Monograph of Odontoglossum - 1864-74, had got it all wrong. Nevertheless he provided Darwin with orchids for his research.
James Bateman lectured to members of the Royal Horticultural Society frequently. In 1864 the subject of one of his lectures was on the requirement of cool growing conditions for some orchids, and he suggested that the day was not far distant when there would be no plant species left and the likes of Lindley; Reichenbach, Bentham and Hooker would have no work. He strongly believed that hybridisation by man was interfering with the work of God.
In addition to lecturing he contributed a number of articles published in the "Gardeners Chronicle" during 1862-1864 under the pen name of Serapias. These, along with his lecture delivered to the R.H.S. at South Kensington on May 3rd.1864 are reprinted in Orchid History Reference Paper No. 10 by R.M. Hamilton of Richmond B.C. Canada.
This lecture did much to convince many collectors and growers that many orchids being subjected to the conditions of the stove house did in fact need cooler conditions to grow well, flower and survive. Prior to this there had been very many losses. He also wrote about and illustrated orchids in Curtis's Botanical Magazine under the editorship of Hooker.
During 1868 the Batemans rented "The Ferns", Hyde Park Gate South, from their great friend Edward Cooke to enable the now asthmatic Maria Sibylla to spend winters away from Biddulph, this also suited Bateman and some of his work and horticultural activities. His wife's health deteriorated further and in 1884 another move to Worthing was undertaken. They created yet another garden containing specific features to enable particular plants to grow well.
Mrs. Bateman died at Worthing on May 4th.1895. James surprisingly remarried the following year and resided at Spring Bank, Worthingith his second wife Ann, about whom nothing is recorded. This union did not last long - this remarkable Victorian Gentleman once referred to by Sir. Harry Veitch as the "Patriarch of Orchid Worthies" died at Worthing on November 27th. 1897 aged 86 years. His remains were interred at nearby Broadwater.
His name lives on in orchid annals through the genus Batemannia a genus of five species from the Amazon basin.
It is perhaps, out of respect for this great man that the genus bearing his name did not receive the attention of the hybridists during is lifetime.
The genus has of course been used on seven occasions at least in the production of intergeneric hybrids:
1889 - Zygobatemannia - Mastersii
1967 - Bateostylis - Silver Star
1973 - Palmerara - Raymond Palmer
1975 - Downsara - Psythenis

Son of a Scottish clergyman born at Newcastle on Tyne who worked for a time, in the retailing business in Leeds, Yorkshire.
During 1831 at the age of twenty-seven he crossed the Atlantic Ocean for the first of forty or so times and became a merchant in Guatemala, where he resided for most of his life - other than when revisiting the U.K.
Through the persuasion of a friend - John Gould, ornithologist and writer he took an interest in the birds of that country and sent many to the U.K. which after taxidermal treatment were exhibited in Natural History Museums.
It was after seeing some of these at the Manchester Natural History Museum James Bateman FRS.; FLS.; FGS, became interested in the Guatemalan merchant and within in few days he despatched a letter containing pencilled sketches of orchids requesting G. Ure Skinner to search for same when undertaking his bird hunting activities. Skinner responded magnificently not only collecting orchids himself, but; by employing natives of that country to do so.
Skinner soon became a leading, if not; the most successful orchid hunter ever, sending numerous consignments to Bateman residing at Knypersley Hall, Staffordshire.
The first carefully packed boxes to arrive at Knypersley contained many orchids new to science at that time; packages continued to arrive and be received with enthusiasm and gratitude; thus forming a unique friendship. Each consignment contained species not before encountered. The showy Central American orchids impressed James Bateman and his many orchid friends and formed the basis for the mammoth elephant folio book produced by Bateman and entitled: "Orchidaceae of Mexico and Guatemala" compiled between the years 1837-1843 in addition to further works "Monograph of Odontoglossum"- 1864-1874 and "Second Century of Orchidaceous Plants" - 1867.
During the Autumn of 1866 after spending some time in his native land Skinner set out for his twentieth journey, before retiring; to the Central Americas to collect orchids and other exotic plants for his friends in the U.K. which included Sir. William Hooker who had been the recipient of orchids for so time along with Bateman, also James Veitch of the famous nursery J. Veitch and Sons.
It is recorded that on Boxing Day 1866 he was collecting orchids in Panama; on January 4th. 1867 he was catching butterflies and two days later he wrote to James Veitch that he had spent Epiphany Sunday at Paraiso (Paradise) where he had seen a scarlet passion flower of great beauty, but seedless; from which he had removed two cuttings and set them in earth to root. Also that he had seen another passion flower of equal interest emitting the perfume of a thousand violets from which he had removed a flowering and seeded branch.
The letter stated that a package on its way to the nursery contained Epidendra; Ionopsis and various Pleurathalis in addition to flowers and seed of the purple and white passion flower and some flowers from the scarlet species.
His letter concluded with information that he was leaving Panama on Jan. 10th. 1867 en route for Guatemala where he expected to arrive eight days later on Jan 18th.
He died from Yellow Fever on Jan. 9th.1867 - no doubt contacted during this his intended last collecting expedition.
James Bateman in his Memorial Lecture, for his great friend, delivered to the Royal Horticultural Society on February 19th.1867, at South Kensington, London. stated that George Ure Skinner had been responsible for introducing more new orchids into Europe than any other individual.
The name of Skinner lives on via:
Barkeria Skinneri.
Cattleya Skinneri.
Lycaste Skinneri.
Odontoglossum uro skinneri

Carl Linnaeus - known as Carl von Linne after enoblement; son of a Lutheran Pastor, was born at Stenbrohutt, Smaland, Sweden on May 23rd.1707 at a time when less than twenty orchids were known to science.
His father had mapped out a career for his son in the Church he himself served, the son was determined to become a doctor and botanist at a time when botany was largely a branch of medicine. The young Lannaeus eventually did what he wanted to do and studied for his chosen career first at Lund, and then from 1728 at Uppsala University.
Despite being very poor and having bad health which persisted throughout his life, he was extremely hard working and he developed an orderly mind and approach to all he undertook. This impressed both fellow students and his tutors and by May 1731 he had been appointed deputy to professor Olof Rudbeck the younger. Within a year he became a very popular lecturer often attracting up to four hundred students to his lectures. He also acted as tutor to Rudbeck's three sons and lived with the family in the house adjoining the Botanical Garden of the University, this house was taken over by him when he eventually replaced Rudbeck. The garden there, with the one at the house that he lived in during the last twenty years of his life, a charming country home at Hammarby, some ten kilometres distance are maintained today as they existed; as a memorial to him.
During 1732 Linnaeus undertook his first and probably, his greatest adventure - a four month expedition to Lapland; during which he endured great hardships, but the curious streak in his character helped him to complete his mission to the point where he boasted about his ordeals and exaggerated the distances travelled, which at that time was without mechanical aids. He returned with valuable collections of plants in addition to other specimens and copious notes about, 'inter alia,' the "Lapps" way of life and diseases in cattle.
From 1735 to 1738 he travelled extensively in Germany, Holland, England and France. In Holland he took his doctorate and published several books including the first edition of his "Systema Naturae". The manuscript so impressed J.F. Gronovius of Leyden that he paid the cost of printing.
In Holland he won the friendship of the famous Boerhaave who introduced him to George Clifford the rich Burgomaster of Amsterdam, whose wonderous garden Linnaeus described in "Hortus Ciffortianus" in 1737.
In England during 1736, he visited Sir. Hans Sloane, Philip Millar of the Apothecaries Garden at Chelsea, and Dillenius at Oxford. An unconfirmed report states that when in England the beholding of a heath prolific with common gorse 'ulex europaeus' caused him to fall to his knees in thanksgiving. Following his return to Sweden he practised medicine in Stockholme, made a very happy marriage and in 1741 became the Professor of Medicine and Botany at Uppsala where he remained until retirement. There was also a Professor of Medicine and Anatomy at the University.
An extremely successful and popular teacher, considered to be ahead of his time in his lectures on diet; hygiene and other topics who attached himself to his students by taking a keen personal interest in each of them. Some he encouraged to travel to the ends of the earth, as his apostles and in search of knowledge and specimens. Deep was his grief over those who died in such causes.
He wrote and published a great many works, mainly in Latin. He is most renowned however, as the greatest naturalist of his age; classed alongside John Ray and Charles Darwin as the three greatest naturalists of modern times.
His perceptive and orderly mind, combined with an immense capacity for study and industry, made him the supreme systemalist and classifier of all time. Plants; animals; minerals and diseases were described and classified by him during his lifes work.
One of his two main works, for which the world is still extremely grateful - "Species Plantarum - 1753" - classifies plants according to the numbers of their male and female organs - stamens and pistils.
To Linnaeus every species was, in the main,-(though he recognised possible changes through altering conditions or hybridisation)- a separate and individual creation of God, unrelated; in the family sense of the word, to any other. Given such a conception the Linnaeus sexual classification of plants provided an index of great value both then and now.
"Species Plantarum" was timely since interest in plants was developing rapidly and prior to the publication of this work botanists did not use real names but relied on a single noun and a string of descriptive adjectives to describe plants.
Thanks to his binomial system every plant; and later every animal, was given a two word name. In the case of plants a generic name, signifying the genus or group of closely similar plants to which it belongs and the specific epiphet, or 'kind' within the genus. Linnaeus applied this principle to such good purpose that modern botanical/zoological nomenclature began with the publication of his two main works and continues to this day
In addition a vast number of scientific names in current use are of his invention. Our dept to him on each and every facet of his work is of immense proportion.
A fitting memorial to this great man perhaps comes from the custom to append to every scientific name - an abbreviation denoting the scientist who invented the name. "L" for Linnaeus is still, some 290 years after his birth; the commonest of such acknowledgements.
One time Professor of Botany - University College, London and Profectus Horticulture of the Chelsea Physic Garden.
Born near to Norwich, County Town of Norfolk, East Anglia, England on Feb. 5th. 1799 to become the founder and editor of the "Gardeners Chronicle" which became the leading horticultural journal of the 19th. Century.
Other literary works by him include:
"Orchidearium Sceletos" - 1826.
"Genera and Species of Orchidaceous Plants" - 1830-1838.
"Sertum Orchidaceum" - 1837-1842.
"Folia Orchidacea - 1852-1859.
Perhaps best known for his work on orchids and the many that he classified and named.
As a teenager he was an acquaintance of Sir. William Hooker - 1785-1865; who was also born at Norwich. During 1818 he was appointed assistant librarian to Sir. Joseph Banks who recommended him to William Cattley to become editor of his Collectavea Botanica - a catalogue of plants in the Cattley collection - completed in 1821.
Shortly after the death of Sir. Joseph Banks in 1820 Lindley became the Garden Assistant Secretary to the Horticultural Society which eventually led to his appointment in 1826 to the Assistant Secretary-ship of the Society at both Chiswich and London.
It was Lindley who separated the genus Cattleya from Epidendrum in 1823 when Epidendrum violaceum was introduced to Europe from Rio de Janeiro via the nursery of Loddiges of Hackney.
William Cattley to whom the new genus was dedicated by Lindley was a generous patron of horticulture and an enthusiastic collector of orchids and other rare plants whose collection eventually became the basis of the Royal Exotic Nursery which later became the London nursery of J. Veitch and Sons.
One cannot read far into Orchid literature without coming across the name Lindley which is perhaps an apt memorial to a leading botanist of his time. A library at the Royal Horticultural Society also commemorates his work and name.
Willaim Spencer "Hart" Cavendish - Marquess of Hartington -
Lord Chamberlain and Privy Councillor.
Born the son & heir of William Cavendish the 5th. Duke of Devonshire and the Duchess Georgina on May 20th. 1790, in a house belonging to the Marquess de Boulainvilliers, in the western suburb of Paris at a time when the French Revolution was reducing Europe to turmoil.
The title The Marquess of Hartington is bestowed on successive first sons of the Dukes of Devonshire. Christened William, after his father; and Spencer, after his mother's maiden name; exactly a year after his birth. The baptism took place at St. George's Church, Hanover Sq., London., in which parish Devonshire House a London home of his parents lay.
Destined for great things from the age of four when dressed in full regimental regalia he reviewed the Derbyshire Militia. At eight he entered Harrow School and became a school fellow of Lord Byron. Outwardly apathetic and resilient - inwardly sensitive and delicate. Having been brought up mainly in the company of the opposite sex he did not develope manly pursuits and exercise despite being quite roguish at times as a young boy when he often climbed onto the roof of Chatsworth House and scoffed at servants sent up to fetch him down. Even then he was somewhat very reserved at times.
From Harrow he was sent to a "crammers" establishment near to Deal and came under the influence of a Rev. Smith; also under the influence of Francis Tavistock a fellow pupil who exercised a "man of the world" attitude which "Hart" was at pains to emulate.
In 1807 he entered Trinity College at Cambridge as a "nobleman" paying higher fees and making the gift to the college of a piece of plate valued more than twenty guineas gained him an M.A. degree for a minimum of work and without taking an examination.
On succeeding to the title - The 6th. Duke of Devonshire - in 1811 at twenty-one years of age he inherited family estates and properties at Chatsworth and Hardwick Hall in Derbyshire; Bolton Abbey in the West Riding and Londesborough Hall in the East Riding of Yorkshire; Lismore Castle at County Waterford, Ireland; Chiswick House in Middlesex; Burlington House and Devonshire House which were both in Mayfair. Each of the country properties were set in countless acres and the London properties were of great value. These investments brought in an income of £100,000 per year leaving him with a net income of some £40,000 to spend. He travelled well, often bringing back to Chatsworth, his main country seat; many valuable "objets de art" thereby becoming an avid collector of medals, coins, books, sculptors and later orchids.
The Bachelor Duke became a generous patron of Horticulture and many other causes in addition to being extremely benevolent to his family and others in need.
During the summer of 1826 the Duke engaged the twenty-three year old Joseph Paxton as his Head Gardener at twenty-five shillings per week which was almost twice the going rate for such a position at that time.
Paxton who later received a Knighthood; not only advised the Duke on horticultural matters but on all manner of things eventually being appointed manager of all the estates and financial adviser who made many decisions for his master who had become more and more involved in politics and matters of state as the Lord Chamberlain and Privy Councillor - offices in which the Duke earned much esteem as a negotiator of considerable understanding and talent.
During the spring of 1830 Paxton supervised the moving of a large weeping ash tree from Derby to the North Court at Chatsworth which faces the entrance to the house. This forty year old tree had branches and roots extending up to thirty-seven feet long needing a specially constructed horse drawn conveyance. Expected at Chatsworth on Good Friday but arriving there on Easter Sunday after the removal of gates and gateposts using forty or so labourers the tree was successfully replanted and stands to this day.
By 1835 the Duke had become sufficiently interested in orchids and through the influence of his friends James Bateman of Knypersley Hall, Staffordshire and Dr. Nathaniel Wallich working as the Director of the Calcutta Botanic Garden, to
despatch one of his under gardeners John Gibson to collect orchids from Cherapungi. Gibson returned via the Cape of Good Hope with some eighty species which had been transported in specially designed "wardian" type cases which were easily transportable and capable of being on deck by day and below deck by night or during rough seas.
This consignment the first of many, later including new species from the Americas; formed the basis of what was to become the worlds largest collection of orchids under cultivation, rivalling those of James Bateman at Knypersley Hall; & the Rev. John Clowes at Broughton Hall, Manchester and many other growers known to have large collections.
So numerous was this collection becoming that the Duke and Paxton had to consider building extra accommodation for them. The result of their interest and planning resulted in the erection of the large conservatory or great stove as it became known. Work on this began during 1836 and was completed in 1841.
This huge glasshouse was 227 feet long; 123 feet wide and 67 feet high, covering some 34.000 square feet of floor area and the largest glass building in the world at that time. Sited away from the house its expanse demanded the clearance and levelling of a huge area of hillside to the east of the Canal Pond. The two stage curved steel framework formed a nave and two aisles which combined Paxton's aesthetic ability with his engineering skill. Covered by three quarters of an acre of ribbed glass panels laid by what Paxton called the ridge and furrow technique, the stove contained seven miles of cast iron pipe fed by an elaborate system of eight underground furnaces fired by coal transported direct to the site by a railway track. It had doors at each end large enough to the Duke's horse drawn carriage to enter.
Completed in 1841 the Duke described the finished structure "The most glorious building of modern times"; in all probability it was the forerunner to the design of the Crystal Palace, also erected by Paxton to house the Great Exhibition of 1851 organised by the Prince Consort - Albert; and possibly a direct result of the Royal visit to Chatsworth from the 1st. to the 4th. of December 1843 when Queen Victoria was driven through the Great Stove specially illuminated by 14,000 lamps; to view the magnificent spectacle the Duke and his staff, under Paxton's direction had created.
By this time the stove not only contained orchids; it housed Amherstia nobilis which Gibson had brought back from Dr. Wallich was now thriving with its huge vermilion red flowers with yellow spots, in addition to tropical fruit trees which had outgrown Bateman's stove at Knypersley Hall. The two often exchanged orchids and other rare plants during their friendship despite being some thirty miles distant.
Paxton was somewhat apprehensive when informed of the Queens' intended visit at a time when he was on extensive excavations to set up what became the Queen's Rocks; forming a strid; laying pipe-work and moving 100,000 cubic yards of earth to form a reservoir behind the Stand Wood fed through several miles of pipe-work to feed it and thereby create sufficient water at a pressure great enough to project water vertically to a height of 260 feet from a fountain in the Canal Pond, the water eventually overflowing to feed the canal.
Sadly the grandeur of the worlds largest collection of orchids under cultivation did not hold the interest of the 7th; 8th and 9th Dukes to the same extent. During 1919 the 9th. Duke demolished the Great Stove by explosives the collection having become greatly diminished through lack of interest, finance and the sever shortage of coal brought about by the need to use all available fuel to sustain the manufacture of arms for the 1914-18 First World War. However orchids on a more modest scale have continued at Chatsworth House where the Sheffield and District Orchid Society hold their Annual Show under the Patronage of the present Duke.
The name of William Spencer Cavendish - The 6th. Duke of Devonshire lives on in orchid history via the species: Cymbidium devonianum; Dendrobium Devonianum; Galeandra devoniana; Stanhopea Devoniensis and last but not least Oncidium cavendishianum named in his honour by his friend James Bateman who presented him with a plant sent to Knypersley by G. Ure Skinner.
Walton Grange, Stone, Staffordshire.
One of the founder members of the Manchester Orchid Society – William Thompson noted amateur orchid enthusiast was in residence at Walton Grange, Stone, Staffordshire - from around 1870 until 1916. His home was but a few miles from the Duke of Sutherland's Estate at Trentham Gardens where an extensive collection of orchids were to be seen. The sight of this collection stimulated his interest resulting in the formation of a lasting friendship with Mr. Zadok Stevens the Duke's orchid grower and the building up of the extensive collection at Walton Grange.
Early interest centred around Odontoglossums of the famous Pacho type, which lasted throughout the forty or more years he devoted to his main hobby. Records prove him to have been a very active member of the Society during its formative years rarely missing one of its fortnightly shows and travelling over forty miles each way to do so; often mounting medal winning displays and gaining many awards for individual plants. His grower Mr. J. Howes, also a member; gained many Certificates for Culture as was the practice at that time.
He visited "Stevens Rooms" quite often making large purchases, one record accredits him with the acquisition of eight hundred plants of Odontoglossum cirrhosum - the entire shipmen imported. Walton Grange became noted for cultivating large plants, one being Odontoglossum naevium majus in an eighteen inch diameter pot - bearing twenty-four flower spikes was recorded. Another; Odontoglossum crispum "var. Thompsonii" gained a Certificate of Merit at the Regents' Park Exhibition in June 1883. Other fine plants originating from the Walton Grange Collection were Odm. crispum –var ‘Arthur Briscoe’; Odm. crispum var ‘ The Earle’; Odm. Crispum var– ‘Queen Empress’ and Odm. crispum - solum. William Thompson considered Odm. crispum var ‘Queen Empress’ one of the best in cultivation at that time and Odm. crispum - solum a unique orchid on account of its wonderful lip which was entirely blood red.
On one occasion he suffered a severe set back when an overhead hot water pipe burst and ruined two thousand seedling plants from his best stock.
It would be untrue to record that the Walton Grange Collection was mainly "odonts", it boasted many fine "cyps"; "catts" and Laelia. Laelia Perrinii "Alba" flowered regularly, Laelia tenebrosa var “Walton Grange" originated there - this single plant - the only one known at the time was said to have provided divisions from which all plants of this species in cultivation for some years to follow. Masdevallia found a happy environment at Walton Grange where good examples of Masd. Harryana; Masd.Veitchiana; the lovely and useful Masd. tovarensis which Thompson crossed with Masd. Veitchiana to produce Masd. McVittiae (named after his married daughter).
Miltonia also thrived - Milt. vexillaria; Milt. Stevensii which was raised by Thompson from Milt.. Roezlii x Milt. vexillaria var "Leopoldii" a generous grower which flowered profusely.
Cypripediums occupied two large houses where all the best hybrids of the time thrived.
William Thompson's activity with the Manchester Orchid Society appears to have come to an end on March 2nd. 1916. Records held show him to have gained the following prizes and awards during the years 1910-1916:
Gold Medal for Cypripedium Mirun, syn Eurybiades mirum. (Alcibiades (superbum) x Hera (New Hall Hey))
F.C.C. Fifty-four - (nine at one show).
A/M. One hundred and eight - (ten at one show).
Silver Gilt Medals for Group Displays - Six.
Large Silver Medals " " " - Eleven.
Silver Medals " " " - Sixteen.
Bronze Medal " " " - One.
Awards of Appreciation - Four.
Cultural Certificates to grower Mr. J. Howes - Five.
During his period of orchid activity W. Thompson produced thirty-five quality hybrids which he registered an doubtless many more he did not register being the perfectionist he was. Of these eighteen were Oncidiinae; sixteen were Cypripedioidea and a single Epidendreae - Masdevallia McVittiae (named after his married daughter and now
considered to be allied to the sub-tribe Pleurothallidinae)
Even by the standards of today a record for which any grower would be justly proud.
A complete list of Thompson's hybrids can be obtained from the R.H.S.Orchid Information System on computer C.D.ROM Disc., as in the case of all originators and registrants.
Auburn House,
Southport. Lancs.
The Auburn House Collection - Southport.
This Southport Collection assembled quickly by J .J. Holden early member of the Manchester Orchid Society was considered by many to be a better collection than a previously known Southport collection belonging to R.P. Percival after whom Reichenbach and O'Brien named Cattleya percivaliana that lovely, large, fragrant, rosy purple fine veined flower with a maroon/yellow veined lip, a golden yellow veined maroon disc and rich velvety magenta coloring at the apex as described by H.G. Reichenbach during 1882 - as a variety of .C. labiata; but raised to the rank of a species in its own right; by O'Brien a year later. (See illustration in Manual of Cultivated Orchid Species pp. 249 by Bechtel, Cribb and Launert.
The owner was displaying plants at the Society's fortnightly shows during the period 1910-1916 as records held prove. He could have been attending these meetings before 1910 but as stated elsewhere the earliest of records along with those of the period 1916 – 1921 were destroyed in an incendiary bomb fire during an air raid on Manchester during the 1939-1945 War.
The orchid houses at Auburn House were situated quite near the sea and were in fact built on sea shore sand. Holden considered the saline atmosphere was good for his plants.
The cattleya house contained a large amount of hot water piping part of which passed through the rain water tank within. Some two hundred "Albino" cattleya were kept at one time including :- C. Harrisoniana alba; C. labiata alba; C. Warneri alba; C. Amesiae; C. labiata ‘Empress’; C. Fabia alba; and C. Maggie Raphael alba; C. Holdenii - hybrid from C. intermedia x C. warneri alba, reported as carrying thirteen flowers in 1911; C. Mossiae Warneri, C. luddemanniana ‘alba’ var ‘Stanleyi’ and many other albino cattleya hybrids including the noted C. Susan Hye de Crom; C. Queen Maud and an excellent variety of C. Hardyana ‘Countess of Derby’ to be seen alongside C. Trianae, C. Mossiae - ‘Holdenii’; C. labiate ‘Peetersii’, C. Hardyana ‘Mossiae and many unique Brassocattleya hybrids.
Hanging from the roof of this house was a large specimen of Trichopilia Backhouseana.
The Odontoglossum house of this enthusiastic amateur also contained many fine plants. Odm. crispum in many of its first forms including: Odm. crispum ‘Lindenii’; Odm. crispum ‘Lucianii’; Odm. crispum ‘Holdenii’; Odm. crispum xanthotes – ‘Warburtonii’ to name but a few were to be seen in addition to very many hybrids of a wide range of colours including Odm. amabile "Holden's var." considered to be one of the very best forms of the beautiful Odm. harryanum.
The Cypripedium house contained hundreds of species, varieties and hybrids:Cyp. Aeson giganteum, Cyp. Dreadnought; Cyp. insigne "Harefield Hall var.". Rare varieties: Cyp. Actaeus Bianca; Cyp. Holdenii with its broad dorsal and Cyp. The King alongside Cyp. farrieanum; Cyp. Baron Schroder; Cyp. Minos Youngii; Cyp. Gaston Bultel; Cyp. Archie Neil;
Cyp. Leeanum ‘Corona’; Cyp. Berkleyanum; Cyp. Dora Crawshaw the almost white form of Cyp. Boltonii and many others.
In addition a number of Dendrobium species and hybrids; several Bulbophyllum virescens; Cymbidium erythrostylum; and Lycastes represented by Lyc. Skinneri Alba; Lyc. Lucianii superbum and Lyc. Mary Gratrix all form a part of an extensive collection brought together over a comparatively short period of time to become well established under the expert care of Holden's grower Mr. R. Johnson.
As far as can be ascertained from records - J.J.Holden produced three hybrids only:
Paph. Holdenii (callosum x maudiae) - 1909
C. Holdenii (C. intermedia Alba x C. warneri Alba) - 1911
C. Queen Mary (C. mendelii x C. warneri) - 1911.

West Point,
Whalley Range,
Manchester.
This husband and wife team were founder members of the first Orchid Society - The Manchester Orchid Society, which had members from all over the British Isles, changed its name to the Manchester & North of England Orchid Society around 1908 and again changed to The North of England Orchid Society during 1972. Samuel Gratrix was President of the Society during 1926-27-28. It is recorded that he was interested in horticulture from an early age, and that he and his wife created a beautiful large garden at their home "Westpoint" - Whalley Range some three miles from the City Centre at a time when Manchester was the "workshop of the world". They attempted to grow peaches, nectarines, apricots and other fruits which grow abundantly in warmer climes. The lack of success in such ventures brought about disenchantment and they turned their attention cool growing orchids.
He and his wife Mary, who was equally interested; quickly amassed and established one of the finest collections of Cypripediums known to science at that time. These were grown in pots placed on slatted wooden shelving sitting atop lead lined troughs filled with coke standing in water. Each trough had its individual inlet and outlet stop cocks and drain to prevent stagnation. Shading was provided by wooden lath roller blinds fixed externally.
Notable Cypripediums grown at Westpoint included the very early hybrids: Cyp. Nitens (insigne x villosum) produced by Veitch in 1877, Cyp.Leeanum - 1884; Cyp.Beckmannii - 1891; Cyp.Aeson giganteum - 1892; Cyp.Thompsonii - 1898; Cyp.Germain Opoix - 1899; Cyp.Fulshawense - 1903; Cyp.Mrs. Cary Batten - 1903; Cyp.Bridgei - 1906; Cyp.Moonbeam - 1907; Cyp.Acteus Bianca - 1908; Cyp.Alcibiades "Gratrix var." - 1908; Cyp.Dreadnought - 1908; Cyp.Queen Alexandra – 1908*; Cyp.Curtmanii "West Point var." 1909; Cyp.Mrs. F.

`Chessington' Christchurch Rd.,
Steatham Hill, London. S.W.
R.H.S. Orchid Committee Member - 1904 on.
Early member, if not a founder member of the Manchester Orchid Society who possessed what was known at that time as the `Chessington Collection' the striking feature of which was the beautiful hybrids produced there.
Very few species only, but those that were in the collection were fine specimens, grown well and used for hybridising. Whilst R.G. Thwaites studied and consulted to avoid repeating crosses already made and purchased plants purely for his main interest of producing first class hybrids. It was his wife who actually did the pollinating and tended the young seedlings. Like all early hybridists the Thwaites had many failures alongside many notable successes as listed in datal order below:

Seventy-two hybrids, many of which were used in later breeding programmes on account of their quality; over a period of twenty-one years is a record to be proud of and which was in line with many other members of the Manchester & North of England Orchid Society who collectively did so very much to promote orchid cultivation and hybridising in the U.K. and elsewhere during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
O.O. Wrigley - (Pre 1856 - 1916) of Bridge Hall, Bury. Lancs. Founder member of the Manchester Orchid Society. Early hybridist and owner of a fine collection.
Mrs. Marion Bruce - (Nee Wrigley) - O.B.E. - (1863 - 1932). First daughter of O.O.Wrigley
Widowed after a few years of marriage to Mr. Harry Bruce, paper manufacturer of Edinburgh and returned to Bridge Hall.
Miss. Constance Wrigley - (1867 - 1955). Second daughter of O.O. Wrigley.
Both daughters continued to maintain the fine orchids at Bridge Hall, creating over the period 1914 - 1955 many hybrids.
Father & daughters were members of the Manchester Orchid Society. (O.O. Wrigley was a founder)
Miss. C. Wrigley served as President of the Manchester & North of England O.S. -1937-1939.
This formidable partnership of O.O. Wrigley. Esq.; Mrs. M. Bruce and Miss. Constance Wrigley and their association with the Manchester & North of England Orchid Society commenced with the foundation of the Manchester Orchid Society on 23rd. April 1897 when O.O. Wrigley attended the inaugural meeting, and continued from 1918 via the involvement of his two daughters, all of Bridge Hall, Bury.
O.O. Wigley. Esq. does not appear in records after 1916, Mrs. Bruce after 1932 and Miss. C. Wrigley last signed the attendance register as President on 31st. March 1939. The obituary of Mrs. Marion Bruce appeared in the Bury Times of Saturday April 30th. 1932. listing the many good causes and societies that this Lady who was decorated with the O.B.E. for nursing services to war wounded housed in one of her residences, which she attended daily to assist with the nursing of servicemen and for which she was also created a Lady of the Grace of the Order of St. John of Jerusalem. She was also the President of the Bury Nursing Division of the St. John Association and a leading member of many such local institutions.
Constance Wrigley assisted her sister with the nursing of war wounded servicemen for which she received an M.B.E.
Despite the fact that she appears to have stopped attending meetings of the Manchester & North of England O.S. as the
Manchester O.S. was then known; Sanders Lists of Orchid Hybrids credits her with the creation and registration of hybrids up to 1941.
Summary of their respective individual/joint achievements in the field of hybridising reveals:
O.O.Wrigley. Esq. - 16 hybrids - 1899/1914.
Mrs. M. Bruce. - 3 " - 1918/1920.
Mrs. Bruce/Miss. Wrigley. - 167 " - 1918/1934.
Miss. C. Wrigley. - 172 " - 1932/1941.
O.O. Wrigley. Esq.:
In addition to the following hybrids created by this founder; as early as 1856; records, would appear to show him as one of the leading members during the formative years in that he regularly mounted very large displays of up to 150 orchids from his extensive collection at Bridge Hall at the fortnightly meetings of the Manchester O.S. He was the recipient of many awards for such displays in addition to awards for individual plants.
He was assisted by his grower, Mr. E. Rogers, himself; the recipient of many medals and cultural awards.

References researched show that O.O. Wrigley. Esq. was a prominent member of the Manchester Orchid Society from its foundation until approximately 1916 often showing large groups of as many as 150 orchids at the fortnightly meetings between 1897 - 1908 when his activities slowed during 1908 - 1916. Records of his awards between 1897 - 1910 have not been found; below are results found in records for the period 1910 - 1915:
6th. October 1910 - Gold Medal - Group Display - Manchester Orchid Society.

Doubtless individual plants would have received awards – again; as stated above records are not available.
Mr. E. Rogers grower to O.O. Wrigley. Esq. also met with notable success during the period 1897 - 1916; again records have not been found other than the following covering the last three years of that period:

During the period 1918 - 1934 the Mrs. Marion Bruce - Miss Constance Wrigley partnership gained the following awards in addition to producing the many hybrids listed. N.E.O.S. records show that many of their awarded plants were of their own creation:
51 - First Class Certificates - (M.O.S. or M.N.E.O.S.).
100 - Awards of Merit.
1 - Gold Medal - individual plant.
3 - Silver Medals - individual plants.
12 - Awards of Appreciation.
4 - Cultural Certificates. (Grower Mr. Burns).
Miss. Constance Wrigley gained the following awards individually following the demise of her sister/partner and during the period 1932 - 1943, again it is also noted that most of these were of her own creation:
14 - First Class Certificates - (M.N.E.O.S.).
40 - Awards of Merit.
8 - Awards of Appreciation.
6 - Cultural Certificates. (Grower Mr. Burns.)
The foregoing is perhaps a fitting tribute to the success of this unique alliance of father, and daughters which created so very many hybrids during the first forty or years of the Society at a time when `in vitro' and `flasks' were largely unknown, and certainly not available to the amateur grower. An alliance which cultured so many of their own orchids to award status.
Ashlands, Newchurch. Lancs.
This Founder member consistently mounted large medal winning displays at most of the Manchester Orchid Society's fortnightly meetings in addition to gaining many awards for individual orchids and producing hybrids during his almost thirty years (twenty-nine years and three hundred and sixty days) involvement. He suffered a serious illness during 1927 when J.B. Adamson acted as Treasurer. R. Ashworth did however return to resume duty as Treasurer from the A.G.M. of June 15th. 1928 to be succeeded again by Adamson from the A.G.M. of June 16th. 1933. In all R. Ashworth served the Manchester Orchid Society which named was changed to the Manchester and North of England O.S. and around 1970 to its present title the North of England O.S.
Whilst there is no record of his passing or obituary (which was customary) in official records there is a record of his daughter a Mrs. B.A. Ratcliffe returning his medals and awards to the Society during April 1934.
His residence "Ashfields", Newchurch; lay approximately four and one half miles N.N.W. of Burnley, Lancs. which is thirty or so miles from Manchester where all meetings were held at that time.
It must have been no mean fete to transport large groups of orchids such a distance every other week, arriving in time to set up such large displays in time for judging commencing at twelve noon as it always did. It is most likely that horse drawn carriage and railway trains were used in the early days.
His displays during the period 1910/1916 for which records are held, gained the following awards:
1 - Gold Medal.
3 - Large Silver-gilt Medals.
36 - Silver-gilt Medals.
33 - Large Silver Medals.
1 - " " " - (North of England Horticultural Society)
9 - Silver Medals.
6 - Awards of Appreciation.- (For individual Orchids shown but submitted for award status.)
2 - First Class Botanical Certificates.
5 - Cultural Certificates - to grower Mr. W. Gilden.
During the period 1910-1927 his orchids gained:
57 - First Class Certificates - M.O.S./M.& N.E.O.S.
162 - Awards of Merit - " "
Precise details of these are to be found on pages of records held with the awards made during the period of his involvement other than 1897 - 1910 and 1916 - 1922, for which, records; if available; would have greatly increased his tally. (Note: Some of the M.O.S. records were destroyed by enemy action during the 1939/45 World War.)
In addition to all this activity he and his grower Mr. W. Gilden managed to create and nuture some twenty-four hybrids; eleven of which were grown on to award status:
1906 - Odontoglossum. Ashlandense - ( Odm. Andrianae x Odm. polyxanthum ).
1911 - " Highfieldense - ( Odm. Queen Alexandra x Odm. Vuylstekei ).

" - Odontoglossum. Minos - ( Odm. Harvengtense x Odm.Lambeauianum )
Note: There is a discrepancy in records re Odm. Minos :-
M.& N.E.O.S. records show an entry where Odm. Minos – (Loochristiense x Lambeauianum) was awarded A.M./M&NEOS. on October 15th. 1914. This cross is not shown in Sanders List of Orchid Hybrids, there is however an entry in the Sanders List dated 1918 showing Odm. Minos (Odm. Harvengtense x Odm.Lambeau-ianum), registered by R. Ashworth.
Odm. Harvengtense is shown as a natural hybrid from Odm. crispum x Odm. triumphans but not dated in the lists, one can only assume that Odm. Harvengtense was listed between 1914 - 1918 and became the synonym for Odm. loochristiense – or visa-versa.
At the same time as R. Ashworths' involvement the Society also had a member E. Ashworth. Esq. resident at Harefield Hall, Wilmslow, Cheshire. - who according to Sanders' Lists produced:
1893 - Cypripedium Beatrice Ashworth - ( Cyp. Leeanum x Cyp. venustum )
" - " Ashworthiae - ( Cyp. Leeanum - (superbum) x Cyp. selligerum - (majus))
1896 - Dendrobium. Findleyano -Wardianum - ( Den. Findlayanum x Den. Wardianum )
1897 - Cypripedium. Myra ( Cyp. Chamberlainianum x Cyp. Haynaldianum )
1903 - “ Fulshawense - ( ? x ? )
1906 - " George Hackenschmidt – ( Cyp. Eismannianum x Cyp. insigne )
1909 - Epidendrum. Leda – ( Epi. Wallisio x Epi. Wallisio-ciliare )
There is nothing in records so far researched showing E. Ashworths' involvement after 1909; it is however believed that he was one of the 29 local gentlemen who met to initiate the Manchester Orchid Society on 26th. April 1897. It is also believed that he shared some of his best plants with other members particularly with R. Ashworth - who could have been his son or brother.
Beardwood, Blackburn. Lancs.
Colonel Rutherford was a very early member, if not a founder member with a well established large collection producing hybrids as early as 1903 and mounting large displays at meetings of the Manchester Orchid Society regularly in competition with O.O. Wrigley and R Ashworth and gaining similar awards. He was assisted by his skilled grower Mr. Lupton.
From records held his activity appears to have peaked between 1911 - 1914 when it became intermittent during the war years 1914-1918 - perhaps due to military service; resuming quietly around 1921/22 and continued until 1931 the later years being devoted to showing a few individual orchids at meetings rather than large groups
He gained the following awards for his displays:
1 - Gold Medal on Nov. 14th.1912.
2 - Large Silver-gilt Medals.
3 - Silver-Gilt Medals.
18 - Large Silver Medals.
31 - Silver Medals.
1 - Large Bronze Medal.
2 - Bronze Medals.
Also the Society's Silver-gilt Medal for the 1913/14 session.
In addition he received fifteen Awards of Appreciation and his grower two Cultural Certificates:
December 8th. 1913 for Cypripedium -Leeanum giganteum.
July 22nd. 1915 for Cattleya gaskellianum.
During the period 1911 - 1932 individual orchids from his collection received nineteen First Class Certificates and fifty-four Awards of Merit:

Considering that Colonel Rutherford would be away from Beardwood for long periods during the 1914 -1918 War and when carrying out his duties as Member of Parliament for Blackburn his record of achievement over thirty something years is considerable.
West Bank House,
Heaton Mersey.
Stockport. Cheshire.
John Leemann Esq. commenced his orchid activity around 1891 amassing a large collection of rarities quickly and thereby causing him to move into the more spacious facilities at West Bank House during 1896 when he was reported to possess one of the largest collections of rare species known at that time. He acquired this residence from a former Lord Mayor of Manchester.
Little has been found regarding his early life, however; the 1881 Census shows a John Leemann as a twenty-eight year old unmarried lodger, born in Bolton, Lancs. in residence at 41, Ackers Street, Chorlton on Medlock, Manchester. The Census of 1891 shows a John Leemann residing at No. 6 Parsonaage Road, Withington, Manchester; where a son John Albert was born on 2nd. June. 1891. Other documents researched show that he moved from Parsonage Road to West Bank House, Heaton Mersey during 1896 and that he was a successful in business as a mill owner and merchant in textiles. He was a generous employer of many; and he invented the khaki dye used for British Military uniforms during the Great War of 1914/1918. Doubtless he acquired much wealth from this. The 1918 Census does not include his name but shows an Amy Leemann as the resident at West Bank House and later local records include the names of Amy, Emily and John Albert Leemann. Since records show that his orchid collection was auctioned during 1918 realising a sum of £4600.00d. it is assumed that he had passed away at that time; or perhaps; like many other collections, this became sadly depleted during the war years on account of the lack of fuel for heating stoves.
West Bank House was a large Victorian detached residence in spacious grounds overlooking the Mersey Valley. The grounds were set out as what was described as a beautiful garden where a team of five gardeners maintained masses of ornamental foliage; specimen hollies; choice conifers; thousands of the best rhododendrons and tastefully arranged rose beds. a large lake containing many varieties of water lily. A Mr. S. Smith (Head Gardener) was the main orchid grower and a Mr. Chambers (Assistant Head Gardener) devoted some time assisting the main orchid grower.
West Bank House was built in 1867. It became the Convent Private School for Infants and Juniors in 1933 until 1964 when it became an R.C. Boys Approved School. During 1970 it was changed to a school for girls at the request of the Home Office, and remained as such until 1980 when the house was demolished. A new Roman Catholic Primary School under the name of St. Winifred’s was erected on the site during 1980/1 - in addition a new Roman Catholic Special School, St. John Vianney’s - the first R.C. Special School in the country – has been established within the estate grounds; the lower reaches of which have been developed for houses.
John Leemann’s favourite plants were of the Cattleya alliance of which he had over five hundred albinos by 1912, including the finest forms of C. warneri; C. gigas; C. labiata; and C. gaskelliana. He rated form and size to be of the paramount importance and did not retain the smaller flowering forms of Laelia pumila ‘alba’; C. percivaliana C. mossiae etc., An `Orchid World’ report of 1912 stated that it was quite impossible to describe the form and beauty of many of his orchids.
This fine collection of orchids established at West Bank were maintained in eight span roofed houses, each fifty feet in length and a larger lean-to house all given over to orchid cultivation in addition to a separate potting shed of good dimensions along with several vineries and fruit growing houses. The `lean to’ on the southern side of the main house was one hundred and thirty feet long linking all the orchids houses to the main dwelling. In addition to orchids; this also housed Passiflora princeps with its long racemes of red flowers hanging gracefully from its roof along with baskets of Davallias and Bougainvilleas.
The intermediate and warm greenhouses were `double-roofed' via two identically glazed structures seven inches apart.
In addition to hot water pipe work within; a hot water pipe was situated between the two roofs a little distant from the rain water guttering creating a stable atmosphere with fresh warm air entering the growing areas via the manually operated vents along the length of the lower roof section. To effect necessary cooling during the summer sunny periods there was perforated pipe work atop each greenhouse ridge through which cool water from the lake in the grounds was pumped and drained back to its source. Such was Leemann's devotion and understanding of the needs of his plants, the natural elements and the effects of the rapidly changing climate.
Such a structure gave a beneficial controllable environment year round since temperatures, humidity and air buoyancy remained stable via manageable control – this was long before the age of electronic control as we are now able to use. The methods used also eliminated condensation and the resultant `dripping' without depriving the atmosphere within of fresh buoyant humid air. The hot water heating system for these `stoves' was duplicated in each stove with its own independent installation used alternatively as a single means of heating to keep each in good working order. Doubtless they could also be used together during very cold spells rather than running a single unit `flat out' for long periods. Several houses were devoted to Cattleya hybrids created from the choicest parentage.
Whilst Leemann's main interest was held by the Cattleya Alliance he possessed many Odontoglossums including a large number of `blotched' Odontoglossum - crispum. Odontioda were also well represented.
Cypripediums filled a single house but are reported to have given their fastidious owner little or no pleasure. In this respect he differed from many of his fellow founder members of the Manchester Orchid Society.
The main compost used was from equal parts of Osmunda and A-I fibre with a small amount of Spagnum moss. Pots were placed on stands constructed from stout wire effectively preventing slug and snail damage.
Ready reference to his orchids was easily obtainable from an extensive library of paintings carefully and methodically stored in specially constructed cabinets built inside his residence.
Almost the entire Orchid blooms were cut twice weekly for table and room decoration within West Bank House during the period 1896 - 1912. His wife accompanied by their housekeeper regularly visited the orchid houses with scissors.
In addition and as an indoor hobby, he maintained a marvellous collection of butterflies and moths totalling almost five
thousand specimens - many of which were extremely rare.
Since the majority of his blooms were cut for his house he was not an avid exhibitor at meetings before 1912. He did however display groups of orchids - mainly between 1913 -1915 at the Manchester Orchid Society’s fortnightly shows where he gained the following awards :-

1914 - Odm. Leander II - ( Odm. crispo - harryanum x Odm. Mirum ).
1918 - Cyp. Valentine - ( Cyp. Thompsonii x Cyp. Troilus (Archimedes) ).
* Note: This cross between C. gaskelliana and C. lodigessi was also made and registered by Temple in 1894 as Cattleya - Miss. Williams. Both registrations appear in Sanders' List of Orchid Hybrids to 1/1/46.
Since John Leemann went to such pains to provide his many rare and choice orchids with the ideal growing conditions he must have had unique understanding of both orchids and their environmental needs and must therefore be considered one of the leading U.K. collectors of his time.
Wilderspool, Warrington, Cheshire.
Early, if not a “Founder” member of the then Manchester Orchid Society established on 23rd.April 1897. Warrington’ Cheshire - Town Councillor and its Mayor from 1903 to 1906.
Records suggest that William Bolton was growing orchids from around 1850 and that he possessed large stocks of all genera known at that time. He is known to have resided in America between 1871 and 1883 and on his return to Wilderspool recommenced his orchid activity amassing even greater quantities and housed them in thirty or so greenhouses. At one time he lost several thousand warm growing species when the heating system to some of his “stoves” ceased to function; undeterred; he simply acquired more and more, importing a single shipmen of some 6,000 Cattleya via the nearby Port of Liverpool.
During 1913 he had 3,500 plants of Cattleya mossiae in sheath and flower at one time, in addition to large numbers of Cattleya: labiata; mendelii and schroderae, many of which were of the albino variety.
In addition to his greenhouses he constructed a very large conservatory adjoining his house, in which he grew many cymbidiums to perfection amid a naturalistic scenario of rocks, background ferns and other exotic foliage plants from around the world.
W. Bolton experimented considerably with composts - ruling out peat during 1897 for a straight mix of spagnum moss with oak leaves. At a later stage he added coarse sand to this mix and used it for majority of his considerable stock apart from the genus Cypridpedium; for these he substituted the oak leaves with a little red marl.
His collection at the turn of the century was estimated to be one hundred thousand orchids; containing most genera then known and grown to perfection by his staff despite the somewhat foul local atmosphere polluted as it was by prevailing air movement passing over a number of chemical processing establishments a little distance away.
It would appear that his favourites were of the Cattleya alliance, but he does not appear to have created any such hybrids; this can be understood since during his time very little hybridising took place. From 1856 to 1900 one thousand and twelve only hybrids were known to science. Of these, ninety were man made and twenty-two natural hybrids. Some twenty only intergenerics of the cattleya alliance had been registered. If W. Bolton made any, he did not register them; and considering that many of his fellow members of the Manchester Orchid Society were breeding across many genera and registering their successes this is somewhat surprising.
What is known of his breeding activity is a little confusing since there appears to be three “Boltons” shown in records:
William of Wilderspool; J.J. Bolton of Claygate, Surrey, who produced Slc. Saint Gothard in 1921 and three hybrids of the “Odont” alliance between 1925/1928; and a “Bolton” who’s initials and address are not given.
William Bolton is recorded has having produced Paphiopedilum Wilderspool from ( Paph. Argus x Paph. Boltonii) in 1914 and Paph. Gypsy from ( Paph insigne x Paph. Watsonianum) during 1915 only; Can it not be assumed that “Bolton” of no initials or address who produced Paph. Boltonii in 1909, thought to be a variety of Paph. Muriel Hollington (Paph. insigne x Paph. niveum) produced by A.J. Hollington in 1897; in addition to Paph. Iris II ( Phaph. Chamberlianianum x Paph. Maudiae) in 1909; Odontioda Boltonii (Cda. noezliana x Odm. Vuylsteakeae) in 1911 and Odontioda Edith ( Oda. Bradshawiae x Oda. Chelsiensis) during 1913 are one and the same hybridiser.
If this assumption that these two are the same person then W. Bolton the subject of this `pen portrait’ should be credited with six hybrids rather than two only. Sander’s Lists did not usually give names and addresses of hybridisers who had registered but one or two hybrids.
Mrs. W. Bolton also had a keen interest in orchids and it is recorded that it was her habit to send many orchid blooms to Her Majesty the Queen on the occasion of her birthday each year over a very long period of time.
William Bolton was also an avid collector of gold and silver coins, handcrafted gold and silver `objets de art’; war medals and paintings.
What a wonderful sight the 3,500 Cattleya mossiae must have been, when as recorded in “Orchid World” a leading Orchid publication of 1900 -1914 - were all in flower.
Orchid Hybridist – 1940/1967.
Whatcroft Hall, Davenham, Northwich. Cheshire.
The following rendering is the net result of some 250 hours over a three year period of research into one of the most prolific orchid hybridisers known. He was a man of much achievement in his profession as an opthalmic surgeon in addition to producing some 362 orchid hybrids between 1944 and 1967.
The following is a brief record of his success in the field of Orchid hybridisation:
Angulocaste 1
Brassolaeliocattleya 1
Burrageara 1
Cymbidium 27
Dendrobium 1
Laelia 1
Laeliocattleya 6
Odontioda 12
Odontocidium 2
Odontoglossum 9
Odontonia 2
Paphiopedilum 293
Potinara 2
Sophrocattleya 1
Sophrolaeliocattleya 1
Stanhopea 1
362
All of the above are registered and the list includes crosses from famous parentage and are still used in breeding programmes to this day. A full list of all hybrids registered by him may be downloaded from the CD.Rom “R.H.S. Orchid
Information System” This a list contains three only hybrids where parents are not known - it is assumed that these were the result of insect pollination within his collection.
His first `Cyp’ hybrid was Paph. Argonaut (P.Acteus x P. Golden Cross) - 1944.
His first `Cym’ “ “ Cym Blush (C. Alexanderi x Magali Sander) - 1946
His first `Lc.’ “ “ Lc. Flash Point (Lc. Golden Flame x Lc Smilex) - 1951
His first `Oncidiinae’ “ Odcdm. Florence Stirling - (Odm. uro skinneri x Onc. tigrinum)- 1945
(Named after his mother or wife.)
The above would appear to reveal that in the main he grew cool growing plants.
William Stirling was awarded “The George Moore Medal” for his hybrid Paphiopedilum Lady Clunas “Whatcroft Hall” FCC/RHS - ( Paph. delenatii x Paph. Gertrude West) in 1952. This medal is awarded annually for the best new Paphiopedilum hybrid.
He was the third member of the Manchester & North of England Orchid Society to receive this prestigeous award - the others being Dr. Cravan Moore for his Paph. Pickwick -(Paph. Mrs. William Pickup x Paph. Viking) in 1932 and Mr. H. Barnard Hankey for his Paph. Wendover AM/RHS - (Paph. Atlantis x Paph. John Henry) in 1938.
In addition to Odcdm. Florence Stirling mentioned above bearing the family name he created Oda. Florence Stirling -(Oda. Astoria x Oda. Melina ) in 1948 and Odtna. Anne Stirling - (Odtna. Carina x Odm. Purple Crown) named after his daughter during 1951. One was named after his wife and one after his mother; both had the name Florence.
Anne Stirling registered his death as on 15th.Oct.1967 at Whatcroft Hall, Davenham, the record of which is held by the Registrar of Births, Marriages and Deaths at Northwich, Cheshire.
The difficulties encountered in conducting this particular piece of research would appear to prove that he and his family were in the main very private persons, but; he did play a somewhat active part in the Manchester and North of England O.S. at their monthly shows, his plants were often awarded.
His obituary in “The Times” of 17th. Oct. 1967 gave notice of his death only, did not include details of his burial and called for `no letters of sympathy’ ; very little is known of his family, other than what is recorded here re his mother Florence;
his wife Florence and his daughter Anne.
William Stirling, O.B.E.; M.D. named a considerable number of his hybrids after Cheshire towns, villages or areas e.g.: Chelford; Croxton; Delamere; Hough Green; Lostock Green; Oulton; Redesmere; Soss Moss; Tarvin; Tarporley; Flash Point, two others after Blackburn and Prestwich, one after the river Bollin and four after the birds - Budgerigar; Chiff-Chaff, Cockateel and Moorhen.
The following is a brief account of the man himself:
Born on 6th. March 1889 at No.3 Willow Bank, Fallowfield, Withington, Manchester, County of Lancaster the son of Dr. William Stirling, M.D. and Florence, Ferguson Stirling, (Nee Crawford). Later resided at Belfield Lodge, Fallowfield,
Manchester. His educational and other achievements are as follows:
Attended Woodfield School, Fallowfield, Manchester - 1894/1902.
Transferred to Manchester Grammar School 1902 until 1904.
Undergraduate - Faculty of Medicine - Victoria University, Manchester - 1906.
Gained M.B. - Manchester - 1911.
Gained M.D. - Manchester - 1916.
Hon. Consultant Ophthalmic Surgeon - Manchester Royal Eye Hospital - 1911/1916.
Captain R.A.M.C. - Ophthalmic Surgeon. - Calais Area-British Expeditionary Force 1916/1918.
Awarded O.B.E. for Services to B.E.F. - 1918.
Resident Surgeon - Manchester Royal Eye Hospital - 1918 until retirement.
Medical Officer - Barnes Convalescent Home for War Wounded - 1918 on.
Fellow Manchester Medical Society.
Member of the Ophthalmic Society of Great Britain.
Despite the fact that he in all probability wished to retain his privacy in death as in life, the author feels that the efforts of this notable hybridiser should be recorded in the annals of orchid history alongside other `orchid worthies’.

This list of the generic names of orchid species has been compiled over
fifteen year period by a grower of a mixed collection with an interest in the ‘History of Orchids’.
It should not be considered an official register or record in any sense. It is purely an attempt to put into a single document generic names, and some historic details of orchid species and hybrids. It does not give specific names of species or hybrids within genera.
The compiler stresses that contents should be considered an historic record, warts and all; different spellings etc. etc. It has been put together over a long period from ‘gleanings’ from many sources – books,official records and latterly ‘websites’.
It is included in this web site document ‘Highlights of Orchid History’ which the author intends to update that document from time to time – approx. every six months)

This list is up to date to 24th. Sept 2004 since it contains names of Hybrid Genera as shown in The Handbook on Orchid Nomenclature and Registration – Fourth Edition 1973 and data published in Registration details since via The Orchid Review and its supplements. It shows some names of hybrid genera no longer in use and not proven (nomen nugax) in the interest of Orchid History. It is produced here as a document to assist those interested in the History of Orchids and should not be considered an official document or registration record in any way.
Categories:
Natural hybrid generic names
# 1 Natural hybrid generic names currently accepted botanically but only in use in registration use
if an artificial has been made and registered.
# 2 Natural hybrid generic names not currently accepted botanically for various reasons but acceptable
registration use.
# 3 Natural hybrid generic names not currently accepted botanically for reasons of taxonomy,
mis-identification and/or nomenclature involving one or more of its parents and not acceptable for
registration use.
# 4 Natural hybrid generic names not acceptable for registration use in which, either no plants
apparently have ever existed or plants of the alleged hybrid origin may have existed but whose
true identity was either incapable of verification or subsequently has been proved to be other than
that claimed.
# 5 Natural hybrid generic names currently rejected botanically and for registration use for reasons
of nomenclature such as priority or homonymy or the requirements of horticultural or botanical
nomenclature conservation.
Artificial hybrid generic names:
* 1 Artificial hybrid generic names currently accepted for registration use but not necessarily accepted
botanically (i.e. taxonomically or nomenclaturally). The recommended standard abbreviations as
used in registration are indicated.
* 2 Artificial hybrid generic names not currenty accepted for registrationuse because the generic name
of one or more parents have ben rejected totally for reasons of botanical nomenclature ( usually
priority or homonymy) or taxonomy.
* 3 Artifical hybrid generic names not currently accepted for registration use because the generic
assignment of one or more parents as proposed by the author of the hybrid generic names , is not
in accordance with currently accepted registration use (the currently acceptable horticultural
equivalent is indicated in parentheses). Names in this category are available for future use in
registration.
* 4 Artificial hybrid generic names not currently in registration use, in regard to which either no plants
apparently have ever existed orplants of alleged ybrid origin may have existed but whose true
identity was either incapable of verification or subsequently has been proved to be other than that
claimed or, although appearing in a publication, has not been submitted for registration and therfore
whose true identity is not proven or nomen nugax (e.g. Pattoniheadia). Names in this category are
available for future use in registration.
* 5 Artificial hybrid generic names currently rejected botanically and horticuturally for reasons of
nomenclature such as priority, homonymy or infringement of the codes of the requirements of
horticultural or botanical nomenclatural conservation.
~ Artificial hybrid generic names with parent genera currently considered to be cogeneric botanically
or horticulturall and therefore no longer currently hybrid names –
(e.g. Armodachnis, Calanthidia-preptanthe).
