flowers. There is a variegated variety, and both require 

 support or training against a wall. 



OrrDiA, or Pelargo^nium, carnosa, fleshy-stalked Otidia, 

 S. G. 98, a shrubby, succulent, branching stem, with leaves 

 sometimes ternate or pinnatified, and small white flowers. 

 Being of a succulent nature, it requires a dry airy situation 

 to keep it in good health. 



O. laxa, loose-panicled Otidia, S. G, 196, a shrubby, 

 succulent stem, with smooth pinnate or pinnatified leaves, 

 and white flowers marked with pale blue. Introduced 

 in 1821 from the Cape of Good Hope, and grows in loam, 

 peat and sand, with the pots well drained. 



IsoPE^TALUM, or Pelargo^nium, Cofyleddnis, hollyhock-

 shrubby, erect, rugged stem, leaves roundly ovate, obtuse and 

 very downy, and the flowers pale and dark red and black. 

 It is a new hybrid, and one of the easiest managed of the 

 genus. Though its anthers are always without pollen, yet 

 it may set freely if set with the pollen of any of the same 

 tribe, and hence an endless source of new sorts. 



C. blattdria, downy-leaved Campy^lia, S. G. 88, a shrubby 

 branching stem, with roundly oval plaited leaves, and purple 

 and white flowers. It flowers from an early period in spring,
