Horticultural & Botanical History

No data.

History at Camden Park

Listed only in the 1857 catalogue [B.306/1857].  This plant is listed under Lilium simply by a ditto mark.  This indicates that the genus is Lilium and would usually be followed by a specific name.  In this instance and in three other cases, the column bearing the specific name is left blank.  The meaning is unclear, it could denote an unknown species, as indicated here, but could also be an error, or space left for plants expected to be included in the catalogue, perhaps included in earlier drafts, but no longer in the gardens.
