végétal, et dont le vif écarlate trouve a peine une comparaison 
dans la fleur du Pelargonium zonale.” Our plant, which flowered 
copiously in the hothouse, in the spring of 1560, was received 
from the nursery of Messrs. Henderson, Wellington Road. 
Superior as this is to our Achimenes cupreata above referred 
to, in the size and beauty of the flowers, and different as is the 
colour of the leaves, they nevertheless are the only differences.
