TRIANDRIA MONOGY NIK: 
A native of the Table Mountain, Cape 
of Good Hope: it is the Gladiolus parvi- 
florus of Jacquin, and montanus of Roemer 
and Schultes, and of Steudel, but as Mr. 
Ker, in his able treatise on the Ensate*, 
has referred it to Antholyza, we have re- 
a it there. 
We raised it from Cape seeds a few years 
since: it flourishes with us in a border, 
close to the front wall of the stove, in sandy 
peat soil, and blooms in June: the flowers 
are curiously formed, and fragrant; ata 
little distance they have much the appear- 
ance of an Orchideous plant. 
* In Annals of Botany, a valu: ed work, the dis- 
continuance of which is much to be ed.
