This, which is the Orchis bicornis of the 
older authors, isa native of the Cape of Good 
Hope, whence we imported our plants last 
spring. It was first introduced, in 1787, by 
Masson. 
The season of flowering is the latter part of 
summer and autumn; for it continues a great 
while in bloom, and is a very curious as well 
as ornamental plant. We getit to grow very 
well in sandy peat earth, in a small pot. 
Only one, however, out of more than a dozen 
roots, has flowered. We do not expect they 
^d

be very well contented if we can but keep 
them, and see them flower occasionally.
