Our drawing and description was taken from a fine plant, 
brought to us from the collection of Levison Gower, Esq., 
who informs us that it is of hybrid origin, and is interme¬ 
diate between P. ignescens and P. involucratum % macu- 
latum , known by the name of Davey’s Coronation in col¬ 
lections, and it is as near as possible intermediate between 
the two, both in habit, and in the form and colour of the 
flowers; it was raised from seed, ripened in the collection of 
Mr. L. Gower, imcompliment to whom w r e have named it; 
we have also seen some other pretty sorts, that were raised 
from seeds in his collection. 
The present plant appears to be of strong growth, and 
will be easily managed, thriving well in a light sandy soil. 
Cuttings of it will strike root freely, if planted in pots, and 
placed on a shelf in the Greenhouse.
