species are white and fragrant, many of them being 
furnished with long, greenish spurs. 
A representative selection could be made with A. 
arcuatum, A. Ellisii, A. Humblotii, A. infundibulare, A. 
Kotschyi, A. modestum, A, Scottianum, A. superbum (ebur- 
neum), and A. sesquipedale, the last-named Madagascar 
species being the finest of the genus. 
Anguloa.—Colombian and Peruvian Orchids of strong 
growth, and similar in habit to Lycaste. The flowers are 
usually produced singly on upright stems, Pot in two- 
thirds peat and one-third Sphagnum-moss or Osmunda 
fibre. When good loam fibre can be obtained, a small 
proportion may be added. Intermediate house. Rest 
tolerably dry and cool after growth is completed. A. 
Clowesii, yellow; A. Ruckeri, yellow and dark-red; A. 
uniflora and its variety eburnea, white. 
Anectochilus.—A dwarf genus with fleshy, creeping 
stems and very handsomely marked leaves. The plants 
should be grown in shallow Orchid pots, using a mixture 
of one-third peat, and loam and leaves in equal parts well 
mixed together, adding some finely broken crocks, The 
plants should be placed in a moist corner, or suspended 
in a shady part of a warm, moist house. They root 
along the stems, and may be increased by cutting the 
leading portions with a root or two and leaving the 
bases to break into new growth. 
With the Ancectochili, and often under the same generic 
title, are usually associated Dossinia marmorata (A. Lowii), 
with broadly ovate, olive-green, veined leaves; Macodes 
Petola, emerald-green veined with gold ; Hamaria discolor, 
dark bronzy-red veined with copper colour, often named
