1855. Disa. A name of unknown meaning, adopted by Linneeus from Bergius. Beautiful Cape herba- 
ceous plants, with flowers of various colors, either growing singly, or in long spikes. Disa cornuta produces 
a spike, often a foot or a foot and a half long. D. grandiflora has large, nearly solitary flowers, of a brilliant 
scarlet color. The species are cultivated without diflTiculty in a stove or in a greenhouse, if the roots are 
planted in light sandy peat, mixed with a very little loam, and not overwatered. The same treatment is 
suitable to the other tender tuberous or fibrous-rooted Orchidea?. 
1856. Satyrium. The aphrodisiacal properties of Orchideous plants induced the ancients to give this name 
to almost all the species they knew ; from o-aru^os, a satyr. The bag-like appendages of the lip have perhaps 
assisted in the application of the name. The species are mostly handsome plants, with yellow or pink flowers. 
Mr. Salisbury says, he preserved Satyrium cucullatum some years, by attending to planting the bulb in a jjot, 
nearly full of broken tiles, mixed with pure sandy loam, and keeping it quite dry when not vegetating.
