at her capacious greenhouses in Philadel-
phia. Mrs. Wilson has an orchid variety
that is the envy and wonder Of enthusiasts
the world over, and lovers OF this rare
flower come from all countries 10 examine
and admire the specimens.
Unlike some orchid collectors, VINO are
content to cultivate few plants with
view to obtaining blooms for decorative
purposes, Mrs. Wilson has always aimed
10 secure as many unique and hitherto
unknown specimens as possible. With TINS
object in view she equips expeditions TO
scour the orchid countries and bring to
her Philadelphia greenhouses as many
rare varieties as can be found. She has
commissioned Eugene Andre, of Trinidad,
10 search the forests of Brazil and VeneZ-
uela for plants, and has for years sup
ported private expeditions under the lead
ership OF George Barrault an intrepid
Frenchman, formerly in the employ Of
Baron Rothschild,
With such enthusiastic research ii Is
not to be wondered at that Mrs. Wilson
has a collection second to none in the
country She has acquired as many as
twenty thousand specimens. For one OF
these she recently refused an offer Of 5000
When the collection of Erastus Corning

AS this collection had cost Mr.. Corning
something like 100000 to accumulate ano
had taken thirty years in the gathering
the value of the entire collection in Phila-
delphia may be imagined.
From the Corning collection Mrs. Wilson
secured the wonderful Wanda Tricolor
Wanda GigantiCa and Wanda Bethmania

years old. The Gigantica is known TO be
more than one hundred and fifty years old

of the present owner. They are the tallest

The value Of such plants as these may
be better appreciated when it is known
that an orchid takes about two years to
appear above the mould as a tiny leaf,
half an inch high. and does not acquire the
growth Of three inches under five years,
and frequently does not flower until It is
twenty years old. An orchid blooms only
once year. 1t may throw out two flow
ers or a cluster of delcately traced bios
sons which remain bright and fresh for
q month or six weeks.
One little bifurcated branch of white
flowers grown on a Dendrobium phalenop-
sis album plant is valued at $500. 1t is a
freak, the purple Towering plant of the
same species being worth little intrinsically
Single specimens of the exquisite white
and yellow cypripedium from India are
valued at $1,000 each. The largest Aims
worth calorum of the Cypripedium family
is owned by Mrs. Wilson. and is valued at
$4,000
A rare plant that bears an interesting his
tory is the Cypripedium Fairrieinum. MANY
years ago this wonderful orchid was dis
covered by an English collector in India. He
brought four Of the plants TO England, and
they caused a sensation there among col
lectors. The finder was urged to tell where
ne had discovered this beautiful orchid
but no inducement could make him betray
the hiding place OF the treasure All four
OF the plants he had brought to England
died, but the dscoverer kept his secret
always intending to go back to India and
gather more specimens Death intervened
and the secret Of the hiding place of the
rare orchid was lost. For more than forty
years the search for the plant was kept
up assiduously, orchid hunters examining
every nook and corner OF the country where
specimens might be lurking. No one found
q single specimen. At last a prize Of a
thousand pounds 5000 was offered by
English horticulturalists to any person who
might rediscover the variety Under the
stimulus OF this reward the waning energies
OF the hunters became galvanized into re-
newed activity, and at last, about six years
ago, collector won the prize, finding the
plant In the interior OF India, near the
Burmese border. There are only two speci-
mems in this country. They are priceless.
Mrs Wilson has refused enormous sums
for her plant.

There is also large collection Of the East
India Wanda orchid. One pink bloom,

fcult to import, as it is found only in the
jungies in the interior Of the country.
Not the least interesting feature OF orchid
collecting is the means adopted to obtain
these rare specimens. There are few
stranger ways of getting a living than by
wrestling these plants from the unwhole-
some regions In which they grow. One Of the
famous hunters of this country is George
I. Freeman. He is about to head an eXpedi-
ton for Mrs. Wilson into the interior of
South America, and this story would not
be complete without some incidents of his
past exploits in the orchid country lie
has been in the tropics since he was boy
of fourteen and has suffered many hard
ships during his lifelong devotion TO the
work of hunting the coveted plants.
He has made his way along the Orinoco
and the Malta rivers, and in the mountain
country Of Colombia, Venezuela and Brazil
has penetrated regions never before visited
by a white man. He has fought off whole
tribes Of Indians and has reached civiliza-
