coloured. Style pale, hairy at the base and smooth 
upwards. Stigmas 5, purple, reflexed. 
This splendid plant is of hybrid origin, and was 
raised from seed in the superb collection of Robert 
Henry Jenkinson, Esq. We suppose one of its parents 
to be P. ignescensj and the other P. ruhescens, but can- 
not speak with certainty. We have named it in com- 
pliment to Mrs. Jenkinson, a great admirer of hand- 
some plants, and an encourager of botanical science. 
The delicate colour of the flowers of the present 
plant, rank it amongst one of the finest of the tribe : 
those are produced in abundance all the summer. It 
requires the same kind of treatment as its near rela- 
tives, growing freely in a mixture of turfy loam, peat, 
and sand, or any other light soil. Cuttings of it strike 
loot readily, if planted in pots and placed on a shelf 
in the greenhouse.
