216 BULBS AND TUBEROUS-ROOTED PLANTS. 
characteristics of Z. canadense, and that if the latter 
were grown in Oregon it would assume the form of L. 
lucidum. 
L. macrophyllum.—A species too little known to 
warrant a description, or to be recommended for culti- 
vation. It is found in Cashmere. Said to be very beau- 
tiful and fragrant. 
L. Mad. Von. Siebold.—See L. longiflorum (215). 
L. maritimum,—See L. canadense, Page 201. 
L. marmoratum.—See L. elegans, Page 209. 
L. Martagon (The Turk’s Cap Lily).—This old 
inhabitant of the garden is a plant we could do very well 
without. The type has no real beauty. It grows about 
three feet high, bearing numerous flowers of pleasing 
shape, but of a dull, lifeless color. See Page 176. 
Var. album.—A_ beautiful flower, pure white, 
small, but very graceful. See Page 176. 
Var. dalmaticum.—The grandest of the group, 
and having but few superiors in the genus. Under 
favorable circumstances it will grow six feet high, and 
yield an enormous number of beautifully reflexed flowers, 
of a shining blackish-purple. The home of all the 
Turk’s Cap Lilies is in England. At Wares’ nursery, 
Tottenham, we saw these Lilies growing so grandly that 
we scarcely recognized them, and supposed them to be 
new varieties. Our summers’ sun and winters’ cold do 
not agree with these forms, and to have them approach 
perfection they need a heavy mulching in winter, and a 
light one, with partial shade, in summer. 
Var. Cattaneze.—A synonym of Dalmaticum. 
Var. hirsutum.—This is a strong growing form 
with hairy stems. 
Var. glabrum.—A synonym of Martagon album. 
L. Maurii.—A variety of L. elegans, Page 209. 
L. Maximowiczii.—A synonym of LZ. pseudo: 
tigrinum, Page 221.
