The Journal of Horticulture, in noticing this decorative border plant, which received 
a First Class Certificate from the Royal Horticultural Society, in May 1882, thus 
writes of it : — “ Very rarely indeed does it fall to our lot to figure for the first time 
and introduce to our readers a border plant so striking in appearance as the Varie- 
gated Tree Mallow. When Mr. Smith first sent us leaves of his new acquisition, we 
were almost startled by their markings ; the irregular mixture of very dark green, 
pale greenish grey, and pure white, impart to the plant a remarkable appearance.” 
Mr. Smith, from whom Mr. W. B. purchased the entire stock, wrote respecting 
it : — “ I have proved that it comes true from seed, but it must be understood that it 
is something like the Variegated Maize, does not show much variegation in a young 
state. The plants from seed sown last spring are now beautifully variegated. There 
is not the least doubt but that it will be one of the finest and most effective plants for- 
large beds and borders that has ever been introduced. Last winter it stood out 
without injury ; it is best, however, to pot some up, and keep them in a cool house;, 
and turn them out in spring, but a slight protection outside would be sufficient to keep- 
the plants undisturbed in beds or borders, which is desirable, for in spring of the 
second year the beauty of such plants is beyond description.”
