Geranium, "Bchinatdm." 

 HYBRID CAPE GERANIUM, "Echinatum." 



This class of Geraniums is entirely distinct, but very little 

 known, and few have any idea of their value. They bloom very 

 freely, and are valuable for cut flowers. This species is a repre- 

 sentative of the class ; the leaves are covered with a white 

 silvery down ; flowers pure white ; the upper petals feathered 

 with maroon; borne on well-formed trusses ; the cut gives a. 

 good idea of its character. [See Cut).

 size ; very desirable.
