Lychnis fulgens, Fisch. (not Hort.). An erect-stemmed perennial, hairy. lvs. ovate to ovate-oblong, roughish, tapering below but scarcely petioled: fls. few, in a rather dense terminal cluster, bright scarlet, each petal divided into 2 broad lobes, on the outer side of which are 2 other and very narrow lobes, the ends of the main lobes slightly toothed; calyx oblong or ovate, 10- ribbed, with erect teeth. Siberia, China, Japan. B. M. 2104. B.R. 478—Perhaps not in cult, in this country. The plant that passes under this name is probably a form of L. coronata. From L. chalcedonica it is distinguished by lower stature, much larger fls., and the well-marked side teeth or lobes on the petals.

Lychnis senno, Sieb. & Zucc. Erect-growing villous perennial, with sessile, ovate or lance- ovate lvs. and 1-3 large fls. at the ends of the branches, deep carmine (or in some forms with striped fls.), the petals deeply cut (half their length) into several divisions which are again toothed at the ends; possibly a form of L. coronata. Japan.—Little known in this country.

Lychnis coronata, Thunb. (L. grandiflora, Jacq.). Perennial, or often biennial under cult., erect, glabrous, 1-1 ½  ft.: lvs. oval-elliptic and acute, the cauline ones sessile or nearly so: fls. very large (2 in. or more across), the wide-spreading petals sharply several-toothed or somewhat laciniate, brick-red, salmon, or cinnabar, scattered or in an open panicle. China, Japan. B.M. 223. L.B.C. 15:1433. G.C. III. 28:205 and 42:189 (the same cut). R.H. 1911:12. G.M. 51:141.
