This splendid plant flowered in the stove of Professor Dun- 
BAR at Edinburgh on the 20th of June of this year (1825), 
when the drawing was made by Dr GReEvILLE, and the full 
and accurate description above given was drawn up by Dr 
Grauam. It far exceeds the © 7 
beauty of its blossoms: from inch species it differs, not only 
in the colour of the flowers, but in the relative number on each 
seape, as well as in the shape and direction of the exterior seg- 
ments of the corolla.
