This pretty fpecies of Geranium, from the Cape of Good Hope, is one of thofe having feven fertile 

 tips; therefore a Pelargonium of Monf. L'Heritier. It is a low growing plant, feldom exceeding 

 eight or nine inches in height, keeping very compadl; but is fubjeft to damp in the leaves, if kept 

 moift in winter, though otherwife pretty hardy. Mr. C. Lodiges, of Hackney, firli railed it from feeds 

 which he received from Vienna, about the year 1/93. It is readily propagated by cuttings, or feeds, 

 and continues to flower all the fummer months; requiring light rich earth to make it flourilh.
