Remarks
Protologue: C. Louisae, or Specioso-defixum; named after my eldest daughter. An exceedingly pretty and remarkable plant, of which I raised but one bulb many years ago, which has not yielded any increase by offsets, and is sterile. The leaves are long, loriform, and flaccid, unlike the habit of its female parent, and the flowers are striped with purplish pink.
