lower ones narrowly spatulate, pale lilac. Filaments 10, 
united at the base, 7 bearing anthers : pollen orange- 
coloured. Style pale flesh-coloured, very hairy, but 
smooth upwards. Stigmas 5, bright purple, reflexed. 
This pretty little plant is a hybrid production, and is 
related to P. crispum, or some of the Citron scented 
species ; but what its real parents were, is not now to be 
determined. Our drawing was taken from plants sent to 
us by Sir R. C. Hoare, from his interesting and extensive 
collection of Geraniaceae, at Stourhead ; the scent of the 
leaves is very pleasant, very much resembling that of 
Lemon ; it makes a snug compact little bush, and our 
plants have been covered with bloom ever since last 
April, which makes it a very desirable plant; it is also as 
hardy as any of the genus, thriving well in any rich light 
soil ; or a mixture of loam and peat suits it very well. 
Cuttings root freely if taken oflf in the young wood, and 
planted in pots, and placed in a shady situation.
