Pl RPUREUM (WASHINGTONIANUM VAR PURPUREUM). This 
lily has such well mar ed differences from the type that it cannot well 
be considered other than distinct. The stems are stout and very leafy, 
the flowers short trumpet shaped and spreading, the bulb large anci 
with jointed scales. In some parts of Oregon they are pure white, in 
others either tinted purple when first blooming or very soon changing 
to purple. 
It is found at all altitudes in Oregon and in many soils. I have 
never i nown it finer than in rich soil in grain fields at an elevation of 
perhaps eight hundred feet in a very rainy region. 
It is practically the only form of Washingtonianum which has been 
cultivated for many \ ears past. The bulbs are not at all apt to rot 
when handled and the root growth is good.
