succulent, decumbent habit. It grows freely in a warm and 
moist atmosphere, such as is suitable for tropical Orchids. A 
mixture of light peat-soil and leaf-mould suits it. The pot or 
pan must be well drained; and during winter, an excess of 
moisture must be guarded against. It increases readily from 
cuttings, which root quickly if placed in a warm frame, without 
the aid of a bell-glass. J. S.
