a large size indeed, but these are arranged in cost, which 
are irregular, and slightly spiral ; but the flowers appear to 
be quite those of the latter genus. 
Not having seen the living specimen, I do not attempt a 
description ; nor does the excellent figure seem to require 
it. It flowers very freely, and the blossoms continue in 
perfection for several days. In one instance, there were 
about sixteen flowers expanded upon the same plant at one 
time.
