74 NOTES ON LILIES 



(3). LILIUM BATEMANNIJE (Talsta Zuri), a fine autumn-flowering 

 Lily, first obtained by me in 1875, with umbels of 6 12 medium- 

 sized flowers, of a deep apricot tint, unspotted, stem 4 feet high, with 

 narrow lanceolate light green foliage ; in habit and growth resembling 

 very much L. Leichtlinn. 



(4). LILIUM WALLACEI, a grand form; very distinct. It is, in the 

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

 between Maxiinowiczii and Concolor ; it is caespitose in habit, each bulb 

 throwing up from 4 to 6 flowering stems; first obtained in 1876. 



(5). LILIUM KRAMERI. This beautiful and remarkable Lily is well 

 figured in Van Houtte's " Flore des Serrcs," v. 20, p. 20G1, also in 

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



Several varieties of the Thunbergianum group. Amongst which 

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

 with large expanded cup-shaped perianth, nearly allied to Wilsoni, 

 (7), MAEMORATUM, and (&), MARMORATUM AUREUM, both early forms, 

 with broad-petalled flat perianths, (9), VAN HOUTTEI, (10), HORS- 

 MANNI, both later flowering, broad -pe tailed 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), PICTUM, 

 (14), VIRGINALE, without spots, (15), RUBRO VITTATUM, with a broad 

 crimson streak instead of a yellow central band, and (16), RUBRO 

 PICTUM, a variety intermediate between the last named and Pictum. 



Several varieties of L. SPECIOSUM, viz., (17), KRAETZERI and others. 

 From N. America we have (18), BLOOMERIANUM OCELLATUM, resembling 

 much in growth and perianth, Humboldt'ti, but differing in the shape 

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

 flower encloses a dark eye. 



(19). WASHINGTONIANUM PURPUREUM 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 Washing fonia- 

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



Several varieties of the Canadense and Superbum group more 

 especially, (21), ROEZLII, see Synopsis, and two new forms, described 

 in the " Gardeners' Chronicle," v. 10, p. 622, as (22), MARITIMUM 

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



From Japan, the very beautiful early Martayon, (24), HANSONI. 



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

 NENSE, one of the Longiflorum 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.
