AWAKDED A FIE8T-CLASS CEETIFICATE, EOYAl HOETICULTUEAt SOCIETY, 
JAHEAEY 11th, 1887. 
This strikingly beautiful decorative plant commences to flower at Christmas, continuing in 
bloom throughout January and February, its bright and pleasing colour being very attractive during 
these dull months, thus proving it a most welcome addition to the winter flora. 
The plant was recently introduced from South Africa, is of easy culture, very florifermis, and 
succeeds well in a temperature of 60“ to 58° ; it attains a height of about 1 8 inches, and is of good 
bushy habit. The flowers, of wax -like consistency, are borne in large clusters, lasting a long time 
in perfection. They are of a beautiful delicate pink colour, and deliciously fragrant, thus greatly 
enhancing the value of this charming plant. 
The above illustration is from the Gardeners' Chronicle.
