From the stove of the Edinburgh Botanic Garden, whence 
we derived our drawing made by Dr Greville, and our de- 
scription by Dr Graham. It blossomed in March 1826. The 
bulb was added to the collection by Mr Neill, who had it 
from Mr Jameson, resident in Chili. It produced a luxu- 
riant plant with six flowers, and a large green leaf at the same 
time with the scape. " The difference of colour," Dr Graham 
observes, " but more particularly the circumstance of the fila- 
ments being connected for a very little way only, together with 
the shape of the leaf, may excite a suspicion that this and the 
E. hicolor, Bot. Mag. are distinct ; but I believe they are the 
same." 
The bulb and flowering scape are represented of the natural size ; the leaf 
is diminished one-third.
