Lilium japonicum, Thunb. (L. Krameri, Hook., f.;see B. M.7634. L.japonicum var. roseum, Hort.). Bulb globular or slightly spherical, 1—2 in. diam., white or pale yellow sometimes tinged red or purple: st. smooth, 2-4 ft. high, green, tinged and dotted deep purple, lower part bare of leaves: leaves 15-20, horizontal or semi-erect, 6-9 in. long, 1/2 - 3/4 in. wide: flowers 1-7, 5-7 in. long and as wide, deliciously fragrant, usually of a bright pure rose-pink color, both inside and out, but sometimes deepening to rose- purple or fading to pale blush, nearly white; anthers red. June to early July. Japan. — A beautiful lily, thought by some authorities to be a wild or natural hybrid between L. auratum (which the bulb and plant somewhat resembles) and another species, probably L. odorrum. Unfortunately, it is delicate and capricious under cultured, the bulbs decaying very easily from surplus moisture: although quite hardy, they can rarely be established in the open ground for any length of time and are best grown in pots or coldframes.
