bear five flowers instead of three in a raceme, and arc more 

 than four inches in diameter. 



Dr. Wallich found it on roeks and trees in Nepal. Fig. 1. 

 shews the lip spread open, and two pollen-masses. It should 

 be grown in the warmest and dampest end of the stove, 

 and potted in turfy peat, having the pot well drained. The 

 supply of water must be regulated by the state of the plant 

 and the season of the year, giving less in winter and when 

 in a resting state, than in summer, when growing vigorously. 

 I would again hint at the impropriety of carrying the 

 drying and resting practice too far, more particularly with 

 such plants as the present one, as I believe many persons 

 liave injured their collections by doing so.
