from both, the lower and contracted portion of the ¢wbe being 
very short, swollen, and angled at the base, the rest of the tube 
or faux is bent at an angle and much elongated, between funnel- 
shaped and campanulate : the lobes are rounded, acute, spread-

Cutt. This, like the other species of the genus, requires to be 
grown in a warm and moist stove. It is a free-growing plant of 
scandent habit, and is well adapted for planting against a back 
wall or for training up pillars : it also flowers freely when treated 
as a pot-plant, the branches being supported either by stakes or 
a wire trellis. A mixture of light loam and leaf-mould suits it ; 
and during the season of growth it needs a free supply of water. 
It is readily increased by cuttings, treated in the manner usually 
recommended for stove-plants. J. S.
