coloured. Style pale-coloured, clothed below with long 
spreading hairs, the upper part smooth. Stigmas 5, bright 
red, reflexed, or revolute at the points. 
The plant from which our drawing was made, we re¬ 
ceived, with several others, from the collection of Mr. W. 
Masters, Nurseryman and Florist, St. Peter’s Street, Can¬ 
terbury, where it was raised from seed by his son, Mr. G. 
C. Masters, from the seed of P. aurantiacum , that had 
been fertilized by the pollen of P. ignescens; he has, also, 
succeeded in raising many other fine hybrids, some of which 
we intend to publish in some future numbers. 
The present subject appears to be of free growth, and 
an abundant flowerer, and the brilliancy of its colours is 
scarcely to be surpassed; like the tribe to which it belongs, 
it requires a light sandy soil, and care must be taken not to 
over-water it in Winter. Young cuttings, planted in pots, 
in Spring or Summer, and placed on a shelf in the Green¬ 
house, will soon strike root.
