Lilium elegans,Thunb. (L. lancifolium, Thunb. L. Thunbergianum, Roezl. & Schult.). Bulb spherical or nearly globular, 1-2 in. diam., white or pale yellow, often tinged red or purple: st. 1 - 1 1/2 ft. high, smooth or slightly furrowed, green, upper part slightly pubescent: leaves 20-40, horizontal or semi-erect, 2-4 in. long, 1/4 - 1/2 in. wide: flowers 1-4, 4-6 in. diam., orange-red, slightly spotted purplish black; anthers red. June, early July. Japan. —There are innumerable varieties and the origin of some of them is difficult to trace, but they probably have some blood of related species, such as L. croceum, L. bulbiferum and L. dauricum, in their make-up. Var. alutaceum, Baker & Dyer (var. aureum nigro-maculatum, Hort.; var. Kikak, Hort.), grows only 6-9 in. high, blooms earlier and produces solitary, pale apricot-colored flowers spotted purple-black. A form of this, var. grandiflorum, is a larger, stronger grower. Var. armeniacum, Baker & Dyer (var. venustum, Kunth), blooms later than the type, producing 1-2 bright orange-scarlet, unspotted flowers, smooth inside: the leaves are peculiarly twisted. Var. atrosanguineum, Baker & Dyer (var. conuscans, Hort.), produces solitary deep blood-red flowers, spotted purple- black. Var. Alice Wilson, Hort., produces pure lemon- yellow spotted flowers Var. aurantiacum, Hort., produces unspotted salmon flowers. Var. bicolor, Hort. (var. pictum, Hort.), has narrower leaves than those of the type and broader perianth-segms.: flowers 2-4, yellow, edged and tipped bright red, spotted purple-black. Var. brevifolium, Baker & Dyer, has shorter leaves than the type and blooms earlier, producing solitary flowers of a pale orange-red, spotted purple-black and flaked yellow at base of segms. Var. citrinum, Wilson, is a stronger grower than the type, 2-2 1/2 ft. high, and blooms later, producing 2 or 3 unspotted citron-yellow flowers Var. fulgens, Morr., has narrower leaves than the type and produces 4-6 deep orange-red flowers. very slightly, or not at all, spotted. A semi-double form of this, of little value, is known as var. semi-plenum, Hort. (var. staminosum,Hort.). Var.alternans, Sieb., is similar to var. fulgens, but the flowers are suffused or flaked yellow. Var. haematochroum, Lein. (var. Hors- mannii, Hort.), produces deep blood-red flowers thickly spotted purple-black. Var. Mawi, Hort., produces orange flowers flaked crimson and spotted purple-black. Var. marmoratum, Hort., blooms earlier than the type, producing 2-4 rich crimson flowers flaked and tipped orange-yellow and slightly spotted. Var. marmoratum aureum, Hort. (var. robustum, Hort.), produces orange-yellow flowers, edged, flaked and tipped crimson and more thickly spotted. Var. Orange Queen, Hort., produces 1-3 bright orange flowers which are larger and with broader segms. than those of the type. Var. Prince of Orange, Hort., is dwarfer than the type, blooms earlier and produces soft buff flowers, spotted purple-black. Var. sanguineum, Lindl., also blooms earlier, producing 1-2 blood-red flowers slightly tinged orange and spotted purple- black. Var. biligulatum, Hort. (var. lateritium, Hort.), is similar, but with deeper chestnut-red, spotted flowers Var. splendens, Hort., is a larger, stronger grower than the type, often 2 1/2 ft. high, with broader, paler leaves and blooms earlier producing rich apricot colored flowers, spotted deep purple and with a yellow band through the center of each segm.—All the above varieties, as well as the type, are of the easiest culture in almost any soil or location and are highly recommended for general planting. They are excellent for rock-gardens, pots or naturalizing.
