The specimen of this plant, from which our draw- 
ing" was taken, was kindly communicated to ijs by 
Miss Newsham from Wetheby Cottage, near Sidmouth, 
Devon, who informs us that she raised it from the 
seed of the common Horseshoe Geranium, and that 
cuttings from the plant always continue true like their 
parent. We have no doubt but the plant is of hybrid 
origin, and suppose one of its parents to be C. Fother- 
gillii, and the other to be one of the variegated-leaved 
varieties of C. zmale. It is a very singular and orna- 
mental plant, its leaves being elegantly reticulated 
with pale yellow veins, and often marked with a dark 
circle, which gives it a pleasing appearance ; the flowers 
are also very pretty, but not so fine as those of G. Fo- 
thergillii. It is a very free-growing plant, and will 
thrive well in any rich light soil, or a mixture of turfy 
loam «i^id peat will suit it very well. Cuttings strike 
root readily, if planted in pots and placed on a shelf 
in the greenhouse.
