Abstract

A new variety of hybrid lily plant of very short stature, about 35 to 45 cm. in height, bearing clusters of flowers of medium size particularly characterized by their vivid red coloration, broad tepals, and inconspicuous spotting, the flowers being of upright orientation and the plant having abundant foliage comprising moderately long and full leaves. The short stature of this plant, its abundant foliage and its upright flower orientation make it especially suitable as a pot plant variety and its color pattern and silhouette are completely new in the upright Asiatic divisions of lilies suited to forcing and to mass commercial cultivation. The plant is highly resistant to disease and shows high tolerance of virus, it is an excellent garden plant, and the bulbs may be precooled and forced throughout the year for pot plant production, the clone being vigorous and a good grower and propagator.
