of Imanlophyllum miniatum, called piclum, of which a vigorously bloomed plant was 
exhibited. It differed from the usual form in the base of the orange salmon seg- 
ments, having pale coloured margins, so that a striped appearance was given to the 
heads of flowers.”

between Olivia and Vallota, or Amaryllis, in style of growth; with dark gi-eeu
