TACSONIA BUCHANANI ( VITIBOLIA), 3s. M. and 5s. 
TILLANDSIA (CARAGUATA) MUSAICA. 
A handsomely marked stove epiphyte, from the United States of Colombia. The leaves are as 
usual amplectant at the base, and are of a ligulate form, spreading or recurving at the apex, which is 
acute in some forms, and blunt with a short mucronate point in others ; they are a foot long, and two 
inches broad, the ground colour of a grayish or pale yellowish green, marked at short intervals and in 
an irregular way by patches of dark green flexuous transverse broken veins, as if inscribed with 
illegible writing, the back of the leaf having the same characters of a dull wine red colour. These 
singular markings give the leaves a very interesting and ornamental character. 2 and 3 guineas.
