Our drawing of this plant was made in May last, at the 
Nursery of Mr. Dennis, at Chelsea. It is a hybrid pro¬ 
duction, and appears to be intermediate between P. eoci- 
mium and P. Smithii, or some sorts that are nearly related 
to those; it is of free growth, an early bloomer, and pro¬ 
duces a great quantity of flowers, as it is in bloom nearly 
all the Summer. It succeeds well in any rich light soil, or 
a mixture of light turfy loam, peat, and sand, will suit it 
very well, giving it but little water in Winter. Cuttings 
root readily, planted in pots in the same sort of soil, and 
placed in a shady part of the Greenhouse.
