nected at the base, 7 bearing anthers, and those without 
anthers as long and strong as the others : anthers all im¬ 
perfect in our specimens. Style dark purple, slightly hairy 
at the base, and smooth upwards. Stigmas 5, dark purple, 
spreading, the points reflexed. 
Our drawing of this plant was made last Autumn, 
from one in the collection of the Earl of Liverpool, at 
Coombe-wood, where it was raised from seeds by Mr. 
Smith; it is of hybrid origin, and appears to be interme¬ 
diate between one of the dark red sorts and P. eocimium , 
or some one nearly related to it; it is named in compli¬ 
ment to the Countess of Harewood, an admirer of the 
handsome sorts of Geraniaceae. 
The present is a handsome, free-growing sort, and con¬ 
tinues to bloom the greater part of Summer, and till late in 
Autumn, thriving well in a rich light soil, or a mixture of 
light turfy loam and peat will suit it very well. Cuttings 
strike root readily, planted in pots, and placed on a shelf 
in the Greenhouse.
