dacea. The relationship of this plant is evidently
greatest to Tnchopilia; it is, however, also closely
associated with Aspasia, from which it differs in
not having the lip united to the column, and in its
deep-irin^ed anther-bed. All these are stationed
m a subdivision of Vandece, to which Dr. Lindley
proposed to give the name of Brassidce. For culture,

HENER£YA, Lindley. Under the provisional name of
Dipteracanthus scanden^, the plant, on which the
present genus is founded, was exhibited at a meeting
oi the Horticultural Society, in the sprint of
the present year (1847). A full examination of
the structure having shown that it forms a new
and very distinct genus, l)r. Lindley has named it
after Arthur Henfrey, Esq., F.L.S., a gentleman
already much distinguished for his sound acquaintance
with Botany, especially Vegetable Anatomy,
i h e iorm of the stigma separates it decisively from
ooth. mpteracanthus Strobilanthes, to which it
has, in other respects, much apparent affinity. The
mode of culture is as follows After it has ceased
to produce flowers in the spring, or beginnino- of
summer, it should be divested of the old soil, and
re-p9tted m fresh turfy peat and loam, in equal proportions,
mtermixed with a small portion of silver
sand. The pot should be rather small in proportion
to the size oi the plant. Plunge it in bottom heat.
Where a humid glowing temperature, perfectly
sweet of/y or 80 degrees, is kept up during night,
and let it be partially shaded during bright sunlight.
When roots have been plentifully produced, give it
a final shift, using rough materials, as Ijefore
described. A few round sticks will answer for its
support, to which the shoots must be tied,
