AMARYLLIS (HIPPEASTRUM) VITTATA HARRISONI/E. 
A remarkably distinct and effective variety of Amaryllis, imported from Lima in Peru. It has a 
stout glaucous green scape, bearing a two-valved spathe, from which issue several (about five) 
pedicellate flowers, which are remarkable for their long narrow tube, fully 34 inches in length, the 
segments of which are slightly spreading at the tip, opaque waxy white, and marked on each of the 
six segments with two broad deep crimson lines, running a considerable distance down the tube. The 
(lowers are sweet-scented, with a faint odour of Daphne. It has been awarded a First Class Certificate 
by the Floral Committee of the Royal Horticultural Society. For illustration, vide page 16.

AMORPHOPHALLUS CAMPANULATUS. 
A most remarkable tuberous-rooted East Indian plant. The leaf-stalk is marked with pale spots ; 
the leaf-blade is three-branched ; the bell-shaped spathe is wavy at the margins, and measures some 
15 inches in height and 2 feet in diameter at the widest portion ; externally it is puce-coloured, dappled 
over with large white and smaller green spots ; internally crimson purple, with a darker rim at the 
base. It is certainly one of the most extraordinary in the whole world of plants, and undoubtedly 
handsome. 5s. and 7s. Gd. 
AMORPHOPHALLUS CAMPANULATUS ORNATUS. 
A strikingly ornamental variety of the preceding, similar in habit and general character, but having

ANTHURIUM CANDIDUM. 
A charming and elegant stove plant, introduced through my collector, Mr. Shuttleworth, from the 
United States of Colombia. It has a creeping rhizome, from which spring up ovate-lanceolate 
attenuately-acuminate leaves, 6 to 8 inches long, on slender erect petioles. The slender peduncles, 
somewhat longer than the leaves, are often, if not constantly, knee-jointed just below the spathe, 
which is ovate-acuminate, about 34 inches in length, an inch wide, and pure white, the spadix being 
straight, slender, cylindrical, and shorter than the spathe. For illustration, vide page 18. 10s. 6(7. 
and 15s. 
ANTHURIUM CRYSTALLINUM. 
This extremely attractive and ornamental plant has fine large leaves of a rich dark olive green 
colour, the mid-rib and principal veins being bordered on each side with a beautiful bright silvery 
white band. The young leaves are of a rich bronzy shade, forming an effective contrast with the more 
matured foliage. 10s. 6(7., 15s., and 1 guinea.
