74 NOTES ON LILIES 



(3). LILIU^[ Batemanni.v- {TaJsfa Zuvi), a fine autumu-flowering 

 Lily, first obtained by mo in 1875, with umbels of C — 12 medium- 

 sized tiowers, of a deep apricot tint, unspotted, stem 4 feet liigli, with 

 nan'ow lanceolate light green foliage ; in habit and growth resembling 

 very much L. Leichtiinii. 



(4). LiLiuj[ Walki^cei, a grand form; very distinct. It is, in the 

 opinion of Professor Baker, a garden hybrid, and probably a cross 

 between MnxvinowiczH and Goncolor ; it is ca?spitose in habit, each bulb 

 thi'owing up from 4 to C flowering stems; first obtained in 1876. 



(5). LiLiUM Ki;a:\ieri. This beautiful and remarkable Lily is well 

 figured in Van Houtte's "Flore clc.^ Serves," v. 20, ji. 20G1, also in 

 " The Garden." Was introduced by me in 1870. 



Several varieties of the Tluaihergiamim group. Amongst which 

 may be especially noticed, (6), Splendexs, a very early flowering form, 

 with large expanded cu]>shaped perianth, nearly allied to ]\'ihoni, 

 (7), Marmoratum, and (b), ]\Iarmoeatu^[ aureuji, both early forms, 

 with broad-petallcd flat perianths, (9), A'an Houttei, (lO), Hors- 

 :jiaxni, both later flowering, broad-petalled forms of rich deep 

 colour, (11), Alice Wilson, a most beautiful and novel form, of a 

 rich citron tint, (12), Mawii, and several other as yet unnamed 

 varieties. 



Also several very fine varieties of Auratum, viz., (13), Pictdm, 

 (14), Virginale, without spots, (15), Rubro A^ittatuji, with a broad 

 crimson streak instead of a yellow central band, and (10), Rubro 

 PiCTUM, a variety intermediate between the last named and Fief urn. 



Several varieties of L. SpEciosuii, viz., (17), Keaetzeri and others. 

 From N. America we have (18), Bloomerianum Ocellatum, resembling 

 much in gi-owth and perianth, Ilv.mholdtii, but difiering in the shape 

 and size of the bulb, and also in the peculiarity that each spot in the 

 flower encloses a dark eye. 



(19). AVashingtoxianum Puetureum or Eel River species, a very 

 distinct form ; the flowers, after being open for 2 or 3 days, assuming 

 a beautiful purple tint; and (20), Parryi, allied to WasJnngfonia- 

 mim, and named after its discoverer, Dr. Parry, from Lower California. 



Several varieties of the Canadeiise and Superhum gi-oup more 

 especially, (21), Roezlii, see Synopsis, and two new fonns, described 

 in the " Gardeners' Chronicle" v. 10, y. 622, as (22), Maritimum 

 (Kellogg), and (23), Lucidum (Kellogg), both allied to Canadense. 



From Japan, the very beautiful early Martagnn, (24), Hansoni. 



Perhaps one of the most interesting addition is (25), Philippi- 

 nense, one of the Longijlorum group, brought over from the Island of 

 Luzon by Mr. "Wallis. 



(26). Davidi (Duchartre), a new form, somewhat resembling 

 Coridion ; introduced to our notice by dried flowers brought over 

 from Central Asia by the Abbe David.
