greenish flowers and a clubbed spur. The wonderful Lady's 
Slipper (Page 62) is found in mountain woods, but is rare. The 
flowers are purple brown, with a bright yellow lip. They are of 
large size, and will be easily recognised. (Forolherand different 
photographs of these last two plants see Wild Flowers at Heme , 
Second Series, Page 61, and Third Scries, Pages 58 and 59 ) 
The Turk's-Cap Lily (Page 63) has large pink drooping flowers 
with petals rolled back like a turban. Its leaves are in whorls and 
it is common in mountain woods. Lilium Camiolicum, which is 
rare, has fewer flowers which are bright red or occasionally yellow 
and alternate leaves. 
The flowers of the Autumn Crocus (Page 64) come up in 
autumn after the hay is cut. The leaves appear and the seeds 
mature the following spring. The Spring Crocus (page 61, First 
Series) has enshealbing leaves around the flower, and the Alpine 
Autumn Crocus ( Celchicum alpinuni) has narrower petals. The 
Autumn Crocus is used in medicine especially for gout.
