The present subject is one of the sortl mentioned 
by us in a former number, that we received from the 
collection of C. Hoare, Esq. of Luscombe, near Exe- 
ter ; and we are informed by Mr. Saunders, that it is 
a hybrid production, raised by him from the seed of 
P. dumosum that had been fertilized by the pollen of 
P. JVatsoni. It appears to be a very desirable plant, 
on account of its abundance of bloom, with which it 
is covered nearly all the summer : it is also a neat- 
growing, bushy plant, not of so robust a habit as 
many others, and is therefore a more proper plant for 
small collections ; thriving well in any rich light soil. 
Cuttings of it will root readily, if planted in pots and 
placed in a sheltered situation.
