THE GREEN-HOUSE. 



63 



Pelargonium hahameum, quinquevulnerum, consan- 

 guineum, obtusifoUum, WiUdenbwu, carnosum, 

 lanceoldtum, hy'hridum, and coTtuscefolium, species 

 and varieties of different degrees of merit, all de- 

 ser,ving culture where there is room, and all hardy 

 and easily managed. 



The above sorts are known by these names in most 

 nurseries at present; but as the new nomenclature 

 of Sweet is coming fast into general use, we subjoin 

 a very select collection which flower during the 

 greater part of the summer, from the " Geraniacece,'' 

 with references to the figures in that work.
