Nearly every bloom displays its double character. The interior 

 of the flower is pale purple, and the funnel shaped part, externally, 

 is deeply blotched with the same color. It was raised from seeds, 

 received from South America, by Mr Wayman, gardener to Sir 

 H. Digby, and is named in compliment to him. In its cultivation 

 it should be allowed plenty of pot room and abundance of water 

 both at its roots and over the foliage. [Pax. J\Iag. Bot.., Dec.) 

 Brugmansiasanguinea is in several collections in this country, 

 and is deserving of a place in every good garden.

A curious and pretty plant with simple racemes of green flow- 

 ers, slightly nodding, often red at the base. The foliage is sparse, 

 ciliate and acute. The clusters of flowers have a neat aspect, and 

 though not showy still sufficiently beautiful to recommend it. Of 

 easy culture. (Bot. Reg., Jan.)

"A charming liule autumnal flowering bulbous plant," perfum- 

 ing the fields of the Crim.ea, especially about the Bosphorus, with 

 its fragrant jasmine scented flowers, which are yellow, somewhat 

 resembling the crocus. It blooms in the months of September 

 and October. It is also found in Hungary. It will probably be 

 a hardy plant, but at the present time, when the stock is small and 

 the plant rare, it would be better to guard against danger by plant- 

 ing in a frame. From its pleasant odor it will undoubtedly be- 

 come a great favorite in our gardens. (Bot. Reg., Dec.)

 high; with lilac and purple flowers; appears in ?; a native of Ilrazil. Hot. Reg., 2. 



A pretty species, " not unlike C. labiata, although inferior to 

 it in beauty." The sepals are oblong and linear, of a lilac shade, 

 and the lip beautifully marked with deep violet. This species 

 has been in English collections for some time; but the figure 

 was taken from a plant which lately flowered at Mr. Knight's of 

 the King's Road. It requires the same treatment as the rest of 

 the genus, and should be grovi^n in a moist stove, kept from 60° 

 to 70° in winter, and from 70° to 100° in summer. The soil 

 should be good peat, cut or broken into pieces about an inch or 

 an inch and a half square. The pots should be filled half full of
