times all bearing perfect anthers. Pollen orange-co- 
loured. Style short, smooth. Stigmas 5, reflexed. 
We first received this plant from Robert Henry 
Jenkinson, Esq. who we believe raised it from seed. 
It differs from most others in its number of perfect 
stamens : we have often found all ten perfect, and fre- 
quently eight and nine. We suspect it is of hybrid 
origin, or it may be a genuine species. It is a very 
desirable plant amongst others, as its colour is dif- 
ferent from most, being of a light waxy appearance. 
It is of easy culture, requiring a rich light soil, or a 
mixture of loam and peat will suit it very well, water- 
ing it but sparingly in winter, as it is of a succulent 
habit. Cuttings soon strike root, if planted in pots 
and placed in a sheltered situation.
