Rh or heads of flowers, in ome of thee before they be blowne, are hoary white, or hairie, whereas in others, there is no hoarinee at all, but the buddes are mooth and purplih: in other things this differeth not from the former. Of this ort alo there is one that hath but few pots on the flowers, whoe colour is omewhat paler than the other.

Although this Orange Lilly hath not his flowers hanging downe, and turning vp again, as the former kinds et forth in this Chapter; yet becaue the green leaues tand at euerall ioynts as they do, I mut needs inert it here, not knowing where more fitly to place it. It hath a mall caly roote, with many mall long fibres thereat, from whence rieth vp a reaonable great talke, almot as high as any of the former, bearing at three or foure ditances many long and narrow greene leaues, but not o many or o broad as the former, with diuers ribbes in them: from among the vppermot rundle of leaues breake forth foure or fiue flowers together, euery one tanding on a long lender foote talke, being almot as large as a red Lilly, but a little bending downewards, and of a faire yellow colour, potted on the inide with diuers blackih purple pots or trakes, hauing a middle pointell, and ixe chiues, with pendents on them.

All thee Lillies haue been found in the diuers Countries of Germany, as Autria, Hungaria, Pannonia, Stiria, &c. and are all made Denions in our London Gardens, where they flourih as in their owne naturall places. The lat was brought into France from Canada by the French Colonie, and from thence vnto vs.

They flower about the later end of Iune for the mot part, yet the firt pringeth out of the ground a moneth at the leat before the other, which are mot vually in flower before it, like vnto the Serotine Tulipas, all of them being early vp, and neuer the neere.

The firt is vually called Martagon Imperiale, the Imperiall Martagon, and is Lilium Montanum maius, the greatet Mountaine Lilly ; for o it deerueth the name, becaue of the number of flowers vpon a head or talke. Some haue called it Lilium Saraenicum, and ome Hemerocallis, but neither of them doth o fitly agree vnto it. The econd is Lilium Montanum maius flore albo, and of ome Martagon Imperiale flore albo, but mot vually Martagon flore albo, the white Martagon. The econd ort of this econd kinde, is called Martagon flore albo maculato, the potted white Martagon. And the third, Martagon flore carneo, the bluh Martagon. The third kinde is called Lilium Montanum, the Mountaine Lilly, and ome adde the title minus, the leer, to know it more ditinctly from the other. Some alo Lilium Siluetre, as Cluius, and ome others, and of Matthiolus Martagon. Of diuers women here in England, from the Dutch name, Lilly of Nazareth. The lat hath his title Americanum & Canadene, and in Englih accordingly. Rh
