total value of the fruit crops of Werder varies, of course, accord- 
ing to the season. In 1875 something like 2,500,000 gallons of 
fruit were marketed at Berlin. 
ANGULOA CLOWESII. 
THE subject of our present illustration belongs to a small 
genus of terrestrial Orchids from the forests of tropical 
America, but in regions of considerable elevation. The species 
are for the most part strong growers, and do not as a rule 
retain their leaves more than two years, but as they make fresh 
leaves every season there is no lack of foliage on well-grown 
plants. They make bold, much-plaited, dark green leaves, and 
produce their flowers upon short stems, which proceed from 
the base of the young growths, beginning to show themselves 
very soon after growth commences. The flowers are mostly 
solitary, Tulip-like, and curiously scented. In the species 
figured the colour is a rich deep golden yellow, 
They have 2 
curious moving lip, which the ladies say has an exact resem- 
blance to a baby lying in a cradle, and as they are supposed to 
be the best judges of such matters it would ill become us to 
contradict such authority. 
In the matter of cultivation Anguloas are very accommo- 
dating ; they love good drainage and an abundant supply of 
water. Pot them firmly in rough fibrous peat and place them 
in the cool house, and if in a somewhat dark corner so much 
the better. After growth is finished very little water will 
suftice to keep the plants in health. 
The engraving (fig. 10) is from a photograph of the mag- 
nificent plant belonging to O. O. Wrigley, Esq., Bridge Hall, 
Bury, to which the Veitch memorial medal was awarded at 
the Manchester Show. 
The foliage of this remarkably fine | 
plant when seen at Manchester was 2 feet long, 6 inches 
broad, and had a spread of nearly 4 feet. The number of 
flowers expanded was forty-four, all of large size and rich 
colour. The plant was grown by Mr, Hubbersty, Mr. 
Wrigley’s skilful gardener, 
CLEMATISES—SUTTONS’ DARK RED BEET. 
CLEMATISES are fayourite flowers in the well-kept garden 
of the Rey. C. P. Peters, Pitchford, Salop. They are trained in 
yarious ways, and will soon present a fine appearance festooned 
at the back of an extremely well-managed flower garden. 
The prettiest effect, however, is obtained by allowing plants of 
C, Jackmanii and C, rubro-violacea to ramble at their will
