38 his o continuing undry yeares, vpon tranplanting, will redire ad ingenium, that is, quickly come againe to his old byas or forme.

The econd red Lilly without bulbes groweth much higher then the firt, and almot as high as any other Lilly: the roote hereof is white and caly, the leaues are omewhat longer, and of a darke or ad greene colour; the flowers are many and large, tanding vpright as all thee orts of red Lillies doe, of a paler red colour tending to an Orenge on the inide, with many blacke pots and lines on them, as in the former, and more yellow on the outide: the eede veels are like vnto the roundih heads of other Lillies, and o are the eedes in them likewie.

The firt of the Lillies that carrieth bulbes on the talke, hath a white caly roote like the former; from whence rieth vp a mall round talke, not much higher then the firt dwarfe Lilly, eeming to be edged, hauing many leaues thereon of a ad green colour et about it, cloe thrut together: the greene heads for flowers, will haue a kind of woollinee on them, before the flowers begin to open, and betweene thee heads of flowers, as alo vnder them, and among the vppermot leaues, appeare mall bulbes or heads, which being ripe if they be put into the ground, or if they fall of themelues, will hoote forth leaues, and beare flowers within two or three yeares like the mother plant, and o will the bulbes of the other hereafter decribed: the flowers of this Lilly are of a faire gold yellow colour, hadowed ouer with a hew of purple, but not o red as the firt, or the next to bee decribed. This Lilly will hoote trings vnder ground, like as the lat red Lilly will doe alo, whereat will grow white bulbed roots, like the rootes of the mother plant, thereby quickly encreaing it elfe.

The econd bulbed Lilly rieth vp with his talke as high as any of thee Lillies, carrying many long and narrow darke greene leaues about it, and at the toppe many faire red flowers, as large or larger then any of the former, and of a deeper red colour, with pots on them likewie, hauing greater bulbes growing about the toppe of the talke and among the flowers, then any ele.

The difference of this doth chiefly conit in the flower, which is compoed of manie leaues, as if many flowers went to make one, potted with black pots, and without any bulbes when it thus beareth, which is but accidentall, as the former double Lilly is aid to be.

The third red Lilly with bulbes, rieth vp almot as high as the lat, and is the mot common kinde we haue bearing bulbes. It hath many leaues about the talke, but not of o ad a greene colour as the former: the flowers are of as pale a reddih yellow colour as any of the former, and comming neeret vnto the colour of the Gold red Lilly. This is more plentifull in bulbes, and in hooting trings, to encreae rootes vnder ground, then the others.

Thee Lillies doe all grow in Gardens, but their naturall places of growing is the Mountaines and the Vallies neere them in Italy, as Matthiolus Rh
