Messrs. Loddiges (whose skill as cultivators of exotic plants is well known,) recommend that this plant 
should be constantly preserved in the stove, and should be potted in loam and sandy peat; to which we 
¥ beg leave to add, that we consider the greater part, if not the whole of the genus, as aquatics, and consequently 
in the Liverpool Garden the pots are kept continually in water.
