Oakesia (Win. Oakes, New England botanist, 1799-1848). Liliaceae. Three species of native perennial woods herbs, having the graceful habit of such choice wild flowers as the Solomon's seal and more particularly the common bell-wort, Uvularia perfoliata. O. sessilifolia has been offered by a few dealers in hardy plants. It prefers a rich light soil in a rather moist, partially shaded position, and improves under cultivation.
Oakesia can be easily distinguished from Uvularia by the Lvs., which are merely sessile instead of per- foliate, by the angled rather than terete sts., and fls. opposite the Lvs. rather than terminal. Oakesia was separated from Uvularia in 1879 by Watson. Lately the name Oakesiella has been applied to the genus "because there is an earlier Oakesia (which, however, is an untenable name for Corema). By some botanists, the species are still retained in Uvularia. Other generic characters are: fls. few, solitary on short pedicels opposite the Lvs.; segms. without callosities: caps, membranous, elliptical, winged, acutish at each end, very tardily dehiscent: Lvs. more or less rough on the margins: seeds globose, with a tumid raphe but no aril.
