Like other species of Lockhartia, this requires a peculiar treat- 
ment to grow it well. It seems to thrive best on a block, if not 
allowed to get too dry at the roots ; and it will also do well, 
raised in pots of rough peat and sphagnum, the pots being two- 
thirds filled with drainage crocks. It requires the temperature 
of the East India house, or the warm portion of the Mexican 
house. The plant flowers very freely when in health, and it 1s 
well worth growing, from its neat habit and beautiful and elegant 
yellow pendant flowers. My plants were received from the late 
G. A. Skinner, to whom Orchid-growers are so much indebted. 
The locality where it was obtained is unknown to me. —
