thing more than six inches from the tip of one 

 sepal to that of the opposite one. The sepals 

 and petals are nearly of the same colour, being 

 of an ochrey yellow, spotted irregularly with 

 dull purple. The lip is as fleshy and solid in 

 its texture as the sepals and petals are deli- 

 cate ; it is seated on a deep purple stalk, 

 nearly an inch long ; this stalk terminates in 

 a hemispherical greenish-purple cup or cap ; 

 and the latter contracting at its front edge, 

 extends forward into a sort of second stalk of 

 a very vivid blood-colour, the sides of which 

 are thinner than the centre, turned back, and 

 marked with, four or five very deep, solid, 

 sharp-edged plaits. These edges again expand 

 and form a second cup, less lobed than the 

 first, thinning away very much to the edges, 

 of a broadly conical figure, with a diameter of 

 at least two inches at the orifice ; this second 

 cup is of an ochrey yellow, streaked and 

 spotted with pale crimson, and seems intended 

 to catch a watery secretion, which drips into 

 it from two succulent horns, taking their 

 origin in the base of the column, and hanging 

 over the centre of the cup." — Bot. Beg. vol. 

 xxii. t. 1811. The genus requires the same 

 treatment as is recommended for Stanhdpea.

 will succeed well in an equal mixture of sandy 

 loam and peat, planted out in a pit or frame. 

 They will also grow, when planted about six 

 inches deep, in a warm border, and protected 

 by some slight covering in frosty weather, but 

 to be exposed when the weather is fine and 

 mild ; increased by divisions,

Corydalis, De Candolle. One of the Greek 

 names of Fumitory ; from korydalos, a lark ; 

 because the spur of the flower resembles the 

 spur of that bird. Linn. 17, Or. 2, Nat. Or. 

 Fumariacece. This is a beautiful genus, the 

 species of which grow from one to six feet 

 high ; the delicate kinds thrive best in a 

 mixture of peat and loam, and are very 

 ornamental in flower-borders ; the annual 

 kinds only require sowing in the open bor- 



der ; seeds. SynonynAes : 1, Fum&ria sdlida ;

Corylace^i, or Mastworts. An order con- 

 taining the nut, and some of our best timber 

 trees, as the oak, beech, and chestnut. 



C(5ryltjs, Linn. From korys, a helmet ; refer- 

 ring to the calyx enwrapping the fruit. Linn. 

 21, Or. 9, Nat. Or. Corylacece. The species of 

 this genus are generally cultivated for the sake 

 of their fruit ; they will thrive well in any 

 common garden soil, and may bo raised from 

 seed ; but to have any variety true to its kind, 

 they must be raised from suckers or layers.
