ANGR&ECUM HYALOIDES (fig. 3) is a very dwarf and _floriferous 
Madagascar species, whose general character is well shown in the figure, 
which represents a plant that flowered in the collection of the late Frau 
Ida Brandt, Zurich. The species was introduced by Messrs. James Veitch 
& Sons, it is believed through Mr. C. Curtis, and was described in 1880 
-{Rchb. f. in Gard. Chron., 1880, i. p. 264). The photograph, it will be 
noticed, was taken from above. The leaves are broad, and the short scapes 
bear numerous small white flowers, with a rather short spur. The plant 
was originally compared with a miniature A. citratym, and it is interesting

to note that Messrs. Hugh Low & Co., who afterwards imported it and a 
lot of A. citratum, found in the importation a plant combining the 
character of the two species, which was described as A. primulinum, Rolfe 
(Gard. Chron., 1890, i. p. 388). This fact affords a clue to the habitat of 
A. hyaloides, which has now become very rare in cultivation. 
The species of Angrezcum have become rather numerous, and a good 
many of them have appeared in cultivation at different times, but there 
must be an equal number that are only known from dried specimens. They 
vary greatly in habit, some having dwarf and others elongated, climbing
