AMAKYLLIDACEjE. 
late A. Bacon, Esq. 12. Stapletoniee, or Zeylanico-pedun- 
culatum. Raised in the stove of the late Earl of Carnarvon, 
and named after his daughter Lady Harriet Stapleton. This 
plant strongly supports the opinion I had long entertained 
concerning the origin of C. amabile, having altogether the 
semblance of an inferior variety of that plant. 13. Louisce, 
or Specioso-defixum ; named after my eldest daughter. An 
exceedingly pretty and remarkable plant, of which I raised 
but one bulb many years ago, which has not yielded any in- 
crease by offsets, and is sterile. The leaves are long, lori- 
form, and flaccid, unlike the habit of its female parent, and 
the flowers are striped with purplish pink. 14. Brownii , or 
Americano-bracteatum ; named after Dr. R. Brown. A very 
ornamental cross. 15. Letitiee, or Erubescente-bracteatum ; 
named after my wife. A remarkable plant, of larger 
growth than either parent, with a red column, and an umbel 
of about 10 large white flowers. It flowers very frequently, 
and is very ornamental, increasing by offsets. 16. Digweedi, 
or Scabro-Americanum ; named by Ssveet after Digweed, 
who raised it in the stove at Highclere. It does not flower 
freely ; in foliage it resembles scabrum very much. 17. Ceci- 
lies, or Exaltato-scabrum ; named after my younger daughter. 
One plant thereof was raised at Spofforth many years ago, 
with a tall red column, the leaves more flaccid than Amabile. 
The flowers are striped with red. It has yielded no increase. 
18. Cooperi , or Specioso-longifolium ; raised by Cooper at 
Wentworth. 19. Parkeri, or Americano-erubescens; raised 
at Spofforth. 20. Murrayi, or Forbesiano -Careyanum ; 
raised at Spofforth ; named after the conductor of the Glas- 
gow garden. 21. DecandoYd , or Flaccido-canaliculatum ; 
named after Mons. Decandolle ; a very remarkable cross 
with pendulous flaccid leaves. They have not yet flowered. 
22. Haylocki, or Flaccido-bracteatum. One plant of this 
curious cross was raised many years ago at Spofforth and 
has grown very slowly. It has not yet flowered, but may be 
expected to do so soon. It has an oval bulb with a long slen- 
der column arising from it, and very long pendulous flaccid 
leaves. 23? Clarouis, or Spectabili-Capense. One seedling 
which has not flowered, raised at Spofforth, and named from 
the Hundred of Claro,but the cross, from its aspect, is doubtful. 
It will be observed, that with the exception of the imper- 
fect notice derived from Dr. Martins of his C. concinnum 
with 12 flowers, and the nine-flowered inflorescence of pur-
