L.B.C. 8:767.B.M. 82. F. 1871:265. Gn. 18: 60; 47, p. 163. G.W. 10:329. Var.quadricolor, Baker (L. quadricolor, Jacq.). Perianth with a red base and greenish yellow middle; outer segms. tipped green; inner ones tipped red-purple. L.B.C. 8:746. Var. luteola, Baker (L. luteola, Jacq.). Perianth lemon- yellow,tinged green toward the tip. B.M. 1020; 1704. L.B.C. 8: 734. F.S. 18:1873. Var. luteola maculata, Hort. (L. luteola maculata, Hort.), differs from the preceding in having spotted foliage. Var. Nelsonii, Baker (L. Nelsonii, Hort.). Fig. 2055. Perianth bright yellow, both series of segms. faintly tinged green: probably the lachenalia most grown in this country, bearing freely for a long season long racemes of brilliant fls.: treated much as are hyacinths indoors, being kept cool. Gn. 49, p. 470; 75. p. 143. Gng. 5:262. J.H. III. 30:231; 62:291; 63:136. Gn.W. 16:25; 21:301. G.W. 43:591; 52:724. G.Z.31:121. G. 19:174. Var. aurea, Hook. (L. aurea, Lindl.).

Commii,Hort., which combines the bright yellow fls. of L. aurea, with the habit of L. pendula. Var. superba, Hort., is described as a very large form with boldly colored fls. Var. d'Anconae, Hort., is a form with light yellow fls. tipped green and purple.
