"G. R.," Beverly, N. J., says: "Among some new Zephyranthus bulbs obtained from a friend abroad, I have one with a yellow flower, and would feel obliged if you would give me the botanical name of it in your next issue".

[There is no yellow Zephyranthus, so far as we know. - Ed. G. M].

"J. H. S.." New Haven, Conn., writes: "I have a yellow Zephyranthus, called Z. ochroleuca; has glaucous leaves about 10 inches in length, and as wide again as the leaves of Z. Treatise; bulbs also larger than the last named. This probably is the variety, 'G. R.,' Beverly, N. J., wants to get the name of".

[The correct name of this is Amaryllis chloro-leuca, a native of the Cape of Good Hope, and though we have never seen the flower, supposed it was greenish white and not yellow. Is it very yellow? - Ed. G. M].

A correspondent says : " I think is botanically" Habranthus An-dersonii; see page 55, February, 1885. P. H. Oberwetter, Austin, Texas, classes it as amaryll-idaceae; whilst in many foreign catalogues it is listed as a zephyranthes. Both are correct, as until lately they were one and the same class".
