Lilium—continued. 
these increase in size. The area over which the disease 
extends also increases, and eventually the buds decay, 
and a greyish-white mycelium is produced which darkens 
with age. In course of time the plant snecumbs; but 
this does not mean the death of the fungus, as, prior to 
this taking place, irregularly-shaped, shiny black bodies, 
known as Sclerotia, haye been produced. By means of 
these the fungus is tided over the winter, as they are 
impervious to the severest weather, and only need the 
adyent of spring to start the disease afresh. In this 
ease all infected plants shonld be burned, and the 
quarters set apart for the culture of the plants should 
be changed. 
Fig, 519. LiLiuM AURATUM. 
Rats and mice are very partial to Lily bulbs, and 
especially to L. awratum: while Aphides and the Bulb- 
mite (Rhizoglyphus Robini), which latter penetrates the 
scales, do considerable damage at times if undetected. 
Warm water, in which a table-spoonful of paraffin to the 
pint has been added, would probably prove of service in 
ridding the bulbs of Mite; but the solution must be kept 
stirred.
