EPIDENDRUM RIGIDUM. 
Class, Order. 
GYNANDRIA MONANDRIA. 
We received this plant from our friend 
Mr. Miller, of Dominica. It was first dis- 
covered by Jacquin, in the woods of Mar- 
tinigue, and figured by him in his Ame- 
ricana. The flowers are most peculiarly 
stiff in their consistence, having almost the 
rigidity of horn. The stems are about a 
foot in height: they appear to grow on 
trees, and may be cultivated here pretty 
well in astove, planted in vegetable earth 
and moss.
