Our drawing was taken from a fine plant in the 
collection of Robert Henry Jenkinson, Esq. last spring. 
It is of hybrid origin : and we believe one of its parents 
to be V.Jlmidum, and the other P. Uneatum, or perhaps 
P. striatum. It is a very desirable plant, being as 
hardy as any of the tribe, and a free bloomer, growing 
readily in a mixture of sandy loam and peat, or any 
rich light soil. Cuttings of it strike root readily, if 
planted in pots and placed in a sheltered situation.
