It is from that inexhauftible fource of curious plants, Mr. 

 Woodford's garden at Vauxhall, that we ate enabled to give 

 a figure of this very rare fpecies of Epidendrum, faid to 

 be the largeft of the whole genus, growing fometimes, accord- 

 ing to Sir Hans Sloan f, to the length of fix feet, and pro- 

 ducing a multitude of flowers, which Brown, in his Hiftory 

 of Jamaica, not unaptly compares to patches of Dutch chintz. 

 The colours are doubtlefs much more vivid when growing in 

 the open air, than when confined in the ftove, where all thefe 

 plants muft neceffarily be in this northern climate.
