Notes:

[From the "Journal de la Société nationale d'horticulture de France", 1897, p. 470:] l'horticulteur florentin M. Fernando Scarlatti

[From "The Orchid Review", 1911, p. 189 :] There were six classes for novelties, but only a single entry, in the one for a new Cypripedium in flower, in which Signor Fernando Scarlatti exhibited a good hybrid seedling from C. Lawrenceanum X Rothschildianum, but the Gold Medal offered had to be withheld, as the plant is already in commerce under the name of C. Mahlerae.
