Note on Ange^cum sesquipedule, Thouars. By 

 William Sanderson. 



This Orchid is a native of Madagascar, and was intro- 

 duced into this country by the Eev. W. Ellis. Though 

 by no means a rare plant, it is one not commonly met 

 with in average collections, as it is rather difficult to grow 

 unless in a suitable situation. 



The photograph which you see is of a plant which I 

 acquired in February 1887: it was an imported piece, 

 and had then only four or five leaves ; it first flowered 

 in my garden at Talbot House, Ferry Eoad, February 

 1888, and has continued to flower annually ever since, 

 the number of blooms being usually from six to eight ; 

 this season it has surpassed itself, and carried eight 

 spikes, six of two blooms each, and two of three blooms 

 each, in all eighteen flowers, all perfect and all expanded 

 at the same time.
