214 BULBS AND TUBEROUS-ROOTED PLANTS. 
L. japonicum.—A synonym for LZ. Kramert. 
L. jocundum.—A synonym of L. pseudo-tigrinum. 
L. Kretzeri.—A variety of L. speciosum album. 
L. Krameri.—In habit this form resembles a 
small-growing L. auratum ; a more graceful or pleasing 
Lily is rarely met. It is a native of the mountains of 
Japan, although often referred to as a Japanese hybrid. 
It is a delicate, low-growing form, producing from one 
to five blush-white, varying to clear pink, flowers, some- 
what of the form of Auratum, and very fragrant. It 
will grow well in all dry soils, with ample protection 
against frost. 
L. lancifolium.—A synonym of L. elegans, Page 
207, also of LZ. speciosum, Page 222. 
L. Ledebourii.—A variety of LZ. monadelphum. 
L. Leichtlinii.—A most beautiful species, in habit 
resembling L. tigrinum, growing from three to five feet 
high, bearing from ten to thirty clear yellow, drooping 
flowers, with small black spots. It is a free grower, pro- 
duced rapidly from seed. It has a habit peculiar to 
itself, its shooting stem often running along a foot or 
more beneath the soil before making its appearance ; 
care should be taken in digging about the bed until the 
stems have had sufficient time to appear above ground. 
L. Leichtlinii majus.—Properly known as L. 
pseudo-tigrinum, Page 221. 
L. Lishmanni.—Included in Z. tigrinwm. 
L. longiflorum.—It is one of the most beautiful 
and valuable Lilies for the open border, as well as the 
one mostly employed for forcing. The typical form 
grows about two feet high, the stems being terminated 
with from one to eight long, tubular, waxy-white flow- 
ers, intensely fragrant. There are several varieties of 
this Lily, one of which, eximiwm, for a few years, 
seemed to be the only one used for forcing by the florists. 
Many of the best growers have, of late, discarded it, and
