Abstract
WHEN the late Sir J. J. Trevor Lawrence, Bart., died, an announcement was made that his well-known orchid collection at Burford I had been bequeathed to Lady Lawrence with an expression of his wish that such of the plants as were especially of botanical interest should be presented to the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew. This gift has now been made to the national orchid collection there, which has received from Lady Lawrence a large selection consisting of 580 plants, belonging to 89 genera, and representing 350 species mainly, but by no means exclusively, of botanical interest.
