ERANTHEMUM ANDERSONI (ELEGANS). 
This charming plant has been obtained from Trinidad by the Right Hon. Sir Maziere Brady, Bart, 
(through the Hon. Horace Fitzgerald, one of Her Majesty’s Judges in that Island), from whom Mr. 
W. B. has received the stock. It is a native of India. 
It is one of the most effective and pleasing plants that can be cultivated, the beauty of its blos- 
soms being equal to that of some of the loveliest Orchids ; these are freely produced on small plants, 
borne in axillary and terminal spikos, tho latter some 8 or 10 inohes long. There is a remarkable 
succession of flowers j as soon as those first developed go off, others again and again supply their 
place, so that the spikes continue in beauty for weeks. The two upper and lateral lobes of the 
flowers are pure white, tho Orchid-like lip or lower segment is minutely but thickly dotted with 
crimson lake, and broadly margined with white. 
It has received a First Class Certificate from tho Floral Committee of the Royal Horticultural 
Society. 3s. <5(1., 5s., and 7 *. Gd.
