Our drawing of this fine stout-growing plant, was
made at the Nursery of Mrs. More, in the King s Road,
Chelsea, last M ay; where it was raised from seed; it
belongs to the tribe that is intermediate between those
related to P .macranthon, and the P . ignescens tribe;
but it is now impossible to trace it to its real parents,
since so many sorts have been raised from cross fertilization
; but from its free growth, and fine flowers, it
may be considered a very desirable plant, thriving wel
in any rich light soil, and only requiring to be protected
from frost in W inter; it will therefore be a proper plant
for the decoration of rooms or windows; young cuttings,
planted in pots, and placed on a shelf in the
Greenhouse, will strike root readily.
