anthers: pollen orange-coloured. Style purple, hairy

The present subject is a hybrid production, and appears 
to be allied to P. cucullatum and one of the veined pe- 
taled sorts. It was raised from seed by Mr. Masters, of 
Stoke Newington, the present proprietor of the Nursery 
that had been originally occupied by the late Mr. William 
Ross: in his collection we have lately seen several plants 
of the rare Grist aria toeVtneti of Pursh, which we believe 
exists in no other collection in this country at present. 
Gur drawing was taken from a plant communicated to 
us by Mr. Masters, in June last; it is a strong grower and 
an abundant bloomer, and succeeds well in any rich light 
soil, where its flowers will be produced in succession all the 
Summer. Cuttings of it strike root freely, if planted in 
pots, and placed in a sheltered situation.
