Eulophiella—continued. 
subjects to accommodate. It is advisable to give them a 
liberal amount of pot room. The best compost is good 
fibrous peat and sphagnum moss, with a free sprinkling of 
broken crocks, which assist in maintaining it in an open 
and porous condition. 
Enlophiellas require a liberal amount of moisture during 
the growing season, and must not be allowed to suffer from 
want of moisture at the roots at any period of the year. 
Constant observation is necessary to keep the plants clear 
of Thrips or other insects, especially when the growths are 
in a young and tender state. The best means to hold insect 
pests in check is by frequent fumigation and carefully 
sponging the plants. The two species described are all 
that are at present procurable. 
E. Elizabethz (in honour of H.M. the Queen of Roumania 
(‘Carmen Sylva”]). jl. white, slightly flushed with pale pink, 
and with the back of the sepals, ovary and scape of a dull purple, 
1sin. across ; sepals orbicular; petals smaller; lip much smaller 
than the sepals, with a golden-yellow disk, three-lobed ; racemes 
many-flowered. April. /. nearly 2ft. long, 1sin. broad, narrow- 
lanceolate. Rhizome creeping and rooting, sending up green, 
annulate pseudo-bulbs 4in. to 6in. high, the transverse scars at 
the nodes bearing a thin bunch of brown fibres lin. long. 1892. 
(B. M. 7387; I. H. xl., t. 173; L. vii., t. 325.) 
E. Peetersiana (Peeters’). fl. rose-coloured, large, borne in 
strong, axillary spikes; lip large, the lateral lobes oblong, the 
middle one bilobed. J. 4in. in diameter at the base. Rhizomes 
thin, Iris-like, yellowish - white. Madagascar (?), 1896, 
(G. C, 1898, i., p. 201.) Syn. Grammatophyllum Remplerianwin. 
EUNOMIA. Flowers white, shortlyracemose. Leaves 
opposite, sessile or amplexicaul, entire, rather thick. 
EUONYMUS. Abont forty species are included in 
this genus ; they inhabit the mountainous parts of India, 
North China, Japan, Europe, and North America, a few 
being fonnd in the Malay Islands. 
The deciduous varieties may be increased by seeds, which 
are best sown in sandy soil in spring, and placed in gentle 
heat to hasten germination. When the seedlings are an 
inch or so high they should be pricked off into boxes of 
turfy loam and liberally supplied with water. The 
Japanese varieties are very ornamental when grown as 
standards 3ft. or so in height from the soil. FE. ewro- 
pzus forms a suitable stock, and should be established in 
pots prior to grafting, which latter operation should be 
performed in February. When grafted, they may be laid 
on their sides or stood in deep pits in a moist temperature 
of abont 60deg. When a union has been formed, a little 
air must be admitted, and the syringe used freely amongst 
the top growth, and in a few weeks’ time they should be 
stood ontside in a sunny position. After a season's growth 
in pots nice heads will be formed, and they can then be 
planted ont in the shrubbery, where their heads stand out 
boldly above the adjoining shrubs.
