Company. It forms a bush with pale green lanceolate leaves, 
taper-pointed, stalked and covered with soft hairs, especially 
onthe underside, which do not however give it at all a grey 
appearance. The stipules are long, membranous, and strongly 
veined. The flowers are small and white, and are produced 
profusely in close panicles at the end of the branches. 
145. EPIDENDRUM Grahami; pseudo-bulbis ovatis diphyllis, scapo ter- 
minali, racemo plurifloro, perianthio patente, sepalis latd-linearibus, pe- 
talis spathulatis, labello trilobo basi longé bilamellato, laciniis lateralibus 
ovatis acutis, intermedia rotundata crispata, columna apice utrinque 
dente obtuso, anthera profundé sulcaté. Botanical Magazine, t. 3885. 
This is stated to be a native of Mexico, and to have 
flowered in the Botanic Garden, Edinburgh. It has a white 
lip streaked with crimson veins, and a yellowish-green calyx, 
and corolla stained with dull purple at the ends. I do not 
see how it differs from Epidendrum altissimum, except in 
being a small imperfectly formed specimen. All the panicled 
Epidendrums are simply racemose when weak, and vice versa. 
146. HYMENOCALLIS panamensis; foliis erectis acuminatis loratis mar- 
gine pallidis, scapo ancipiti, umbellé multiflora, floribus sessilibus, tubo 
6-pollicari, limbi laciniis 4-pollicaribus, corona obconica libera inter sta- 
mina obtuse dentata. 
A beautiful fragrant plant, sent from Panama by J. Cade, 
Esq., H. M. Consul in that country. It has erect leaves with 
a slight white border and a tapering point. ‘The scape is 
rather more than a foot high and two-edged. Ten or twelve 
flowers grow in an umbel, with a tube six inches long, green 
at the lower part, white at the upper. The limb is white, 
with linear segments four inches long. The coronet is quite 
white, obconical, plaited, and with one blunt tooth between the 
stamens. ‘The filaments are green ; the anthers deep orange 
colour. This appears to be quite different from all the species 
hitherto described, but nearest to H. Harrisii, whose scape 
is only compressed and not two-edged, and whose flowers are 
smaller. It has flowered in the Garden of the Horticultural 
‘Society.
