This fine plant is of hybrid origin, and was raised
from seed by Mr. Bailey, nurseryman at Clapton,
whose fine collection of Geraniacese exceeds any that
we have seen. It is quite impossible to trace its parents
with any certainty, but it is as nearly related to
P. superbum as any that we are acquainted with: it is a
free grower and an abundant bloomer, and will therefore
be a desirable plant: a mixture peat suits it very well, and cuttings wiollf stouorfny s ltoriakme raonodt
if placed in a sheltered situation.
Our drawing was taken from a fine specimen, communicated
to us with several others in full bloom, in
June last.
