B. Onddium xanthodon. Ecuador . . . B. M., 5756. 

 A fine-blooming species allied to Onddium serratum ; 

 flower-spike very large, bearing a profusion of rich brown 

 and yellow flowers. 



A. Onddium zebrinum. Venezuela . . . B. M., 6138. 

 A very beautiful species, producing long branching (12 

 feet) spikes ; perianth pure white, with red-purple bars ; 

 lip barred with gamboge-yellow. A rare plant. 



These plants are all evergreen. Those having large 

 leaves or tall flower-stalks should be grown in pots, with 

 peat and moss, with good drainage. Those with small 

 leaves, except Onddium uniflorum, which does best in a 

 pot, should be grown on blocks, with a little moss. All 

 species will succeed well, however, with pot culture. 

 They require plenty of heat and moisture in the growing 

 season, but afterwards only just enough water to keep 

 the leaves and bulbs from shriveling. The plants will 

 thrive in either house. Propagated by division. Onddi-
