Brazil. Found on the Organ Mountains by Mr. Miers. It has alto-

 utrinque supra flexuram lobato-crispato apice ovato concavo serrato, 



columna tereti. Loxa. This is a very remarkable plant. Its 



thick leathery leaves are nine inches and more in length, and the stem 

 that bears them is much longer, and as stout as a reed. The flowers are 

 large, and apparently of some pale colour, densely aggregated. The 

 column seems quite terete, and has an anther dorsal with respect to the 

 stigma. The pollen-masses are two.
