Blandfordia grandiflora, R. Br. Lvs. 12-18 in. long, 3-4½ lines wide: fls. 10-30. Distinguished from all others by having the filaments inserted instead of at the middle, but in var. intermedia, Baker, which connects B. grandiflora and B. nobilis, the filaments are inserted at the middle of the tube, the Lvs. are narrower, and the fls. smaller.
