Linum longiflorum, of Japan, was originally deemed 
by Thunberg the same with the Common White Lily of our 
gardens (L. candidum); but was afterwards separated, and 
if longiflorum is of the same species with the present, which 
we believe it to be from the description, there could exist 
no reason for uniting the two when they had been com- 
pared. ; 
As that botanist speaks of flowers, in describing his 
longiflorum, it would follow that his plant had more than
