Discovered in South Africa by a collector of Orchids. The plant is of robust
habit, with thick, dark, brown-purple, shining stems. The branches are numerous,
spreading 3 or 4 feet; thick, large, dark green colored leaves. The flowers are trum-
pet-shaped, measuring 8 or 10 inches in length and 5 to 7 inches across the mouth,
and form three distinct flowers growing each within the other. The mouth of the
corolla is the most delicate white, beautifully marked with purple. A single plant
gives from 200 to 300 fragrant blooms during the season, followed by a large, thorny
seed vessel, which adds to its beauty; is one of easiest culture; plant at the end of
May in a warm, rich soil; can be cultivated as an isolated specimen, in masses for
center of beds, or to fill barren places, and produces a striking effect.

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.


This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.


Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
