CheirostEmon, Humboldt et Bonpland. From 

 cheir, the hand, and stemon, a stamen ; on 

 accomit of their having five stamens, and the 

 filaments united at the base. Linn. 16, Or. 5, 

 Nat. Or. Sterculiaceoe. This is generally called 

 the hand plant, on account of its five curved 

 anthers which resemble the human hand ; it 

 will grow about one hundred feet high, and 

 cuttings with their leaves entire, potted in 

 peaty soil, plunged in heat, root freely, 

 paranoides . Bed pur. 5, S. Ev. T. 100 [~S. Spain 1801 



Cheir6stylis, Linn. From cheir, the hand, and 

 stylos, a style. Linn. 20, Or. 1, Nat. Or. Or- 

 chidacea. ' ' This interesting, but inconspicuous 

 genus, was obtained by Messrs. Loddiges, from 

 Ceylon." In general aspect it is like a minute 

 Goodyera, but differs from that genus in several 

 particulars. A very damp heat is requisite for 

 these little gems— their treatment is the same 

 as for Ancectochllus. Synonyme: 1, Dossinia 

 marmorata, Ancectochllus Lbwii.

Chel6ne, Linn. From chelone, a tortoise ; to 

 the back of which, the helmet of the flowers 

 is fancifully compared. Linn. 14, Or. 2, Nat. 

 Or. Scrophularidcece. This is a beautiful hardy 

 herbaceous genus, that ought to have a place 

 in every collection ; the species succeed well in 



a mixture of peat and loam, and 

 by dividing the roots. Synonym
