PELARGONIUM latidentatum. 
Broad-toothed Stork's-bill. 
P. latidentatum , foliis cordatis 5-7-lobis lato-dentatis ci- 
liatis utrinque molliter pubescentibus, stipulis lan- 
ceolatis longe acuminatis ciliatis, umbellis multi- 
floris, tubo nectarifero calyce acuto duplo longiore. 
Geranium Miranda, Hortulanorum. 
Stem rather short, frutescent, much branched: bran¬ 
ches thickly clothed with very unequal spreading hairs. 
Leaves cordate, broad at the base, scarcely acute, un¬ 
equally 5 or 7-lobed, and toothed with very broad 
teeth, that terminate in an acute point; margins frin¬ 
ged with short hairs, both sides clothed with short soft 
downy hairs, which makes a soft feel to the touch, re¬ 
sembling the feel of cloth: lower leaves largest and 
broadest, 7-lobed, the lobes sometimes flat and spread¬ 
ing, others are more or less recurved: upper leaves 
sharper and less lobed, the teeth slightly tipped with 
brown. Petioles slightly flattened on the upper side 
and rounded on the lower, thickened a little at the base, 
thickly clothed with spreading hairs, and short down 
underneath. Stipules broadly lanceolate, tapering to a 
long slender point, fringed with short hairs, sometimes, 
but rarely toothed. Peduncles cylindrical, swollen at 
the base, clothed with unequal spreading hairs. Um¬ 
bels many-flowered. Involucre of 6 to 8 bractes, that 
are unequal in size, lanceolate, acute, concave, very 
hairy and fringed. Pedicles about the length of the 
bractes. Calyx 5-cleft, segments lanceolate, sharp- 
pointed, very hairy and fringed, the margins more or 
less red: upper one broadest, and keeled at the back.
