This species has larger flowers than any other stylidium yet introduced. It 

 is a native of the country near the Swan River ; and, in this country, it 

 requires a greenhouse, with a soil of sandy peat, mixed with a very little loam. 

 " It should be kept in small pots, and treated as a sub-aquatic during the 

 growing season in summer, but must be kept rather dry during winter, and in 

 a cool part of the greenhouse, where there is plenty of light and air. It is 

 easily increased from seeds." (Bot. Reg., July.)
