No. 1059. 
DENDROBIUM SQUALENS. 
Class, Order. 
GYNANDRIA MONANDRIA. 
We received this plant in 1824, from the 
Horticultural Society. It was found near 
Rio de Janeiro in woods, by the Society’s 
late excellent collector, Mr. John Forbes. 
With us it flowered in July, with two stems, 
and again in October: the flowers are 
curious but not splendid, being of a dingy 
hue. It must be preserved constantly in 
the stove, and potted in vegetable earth, 
with some fresh moss put over the surface.
