On Ekichabidilm Ghandii'i.orum.— I saw the ether day, in a botanic 

 garden, a fine specimen of a plant to me quite new, but apparently hardy, and 

 much resembling the Clarkie pulchella. The name on the label was " Ericha- 

 rulium granditiorum." Can any of your correspondents tell me its place in the 

 natural system of botany, country, date of introduction, whether an annual or 

 perennial, and general culture— in a word, "all about it.'' 



Gladiolus.
