Asiatics / VII Orientals / VIII: OT, LA, LO / IX: Species
Both flower habit ((a) up-, (b) out- or (c) down-facing) and flower
form ((a) trumpet, (b) bowl, (c) flat
or (d) recurved) are indicated for each entry when this information
is available. The existing lettering is
retained, with flower habit given first, separated from the flower form
by a slash mark (/). An entry such as
I (a/c) ‘Dot.com’ therefore indicates this is an up-facing,
flat-flowered asiatic lily.
