We believe the present species had been long lost to 
our gardens, untill reintroduced again by Mr. Burchell, 
on his return from the Cape; and from a plant given by 
him to R. H. Jenkinson, Esq. our drawing was made : 
the plant figured by Jacquin only differs slightly in the 
colour of its flowers; but the present must not be confused 
with G. abrotanifolium of Andrews, that being either 
P. Mr turn or P. tenuifolium. This species belongs to 
the Section Athamanthoidea, and is related to P. inci- 
sum and P. canescens; it is as hardy as the rest of that 
tribe, and continues in bloom nearly all the Summer, 
thriving well in a mixture of turfy loam, peat, and sand, 
or any light rich soil; young cuttings root freely, planted 
in pots, and placed on a shelf in the Greenhouse.
