Abstract
THERE was lately exhibited in this city a plant of Fourcroya cubensis, Haw., in which the well-known tree-like inflorescence had been deformed into what I believe to be the largest fasciation on record. The plant came from Carapa, a small village distant about 4 miles towards the west from Caracas. Its aspect is given in the accompanying figure, engraved after a photograph.
