This plant is, without doubt, of hybrid origin, and
was raised from seed in the superb collection of Robert
Henry Jenkinson, Esq. where our drawing was made.
Its leaves are very large and slightly notched, so that
we suspect it has been produced between a plant known
in collections by the name of P. generalissimum, and
another of the strong-growing sorts. It is a very hardy
plant, thriving well in any light rich soil, and only requiring
shelter from frost. Cuttings of it soon strike
root, if placed in a sheltered situation.
