Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture

Heloniopsis (Greek, like Helonias). Liliaceae. Herbaceous plants resembling the swamp-pink, Helonias bullata, in the color of flowers, but the flowers are larger and fewer, and the leaves numerous and tufted.

Scapose plants, with fls. few in a raceme or sometimes solitary: style a conspicuous feature, being long and red, tipped with a purple undivided stigma, while in Helonias the style is very short and 3-cut. Both genera are separated from numerous allied genera by the septicidal dehisence of their caps. The fls. are bell-shaped, drooping, deep pink, 6-lobed, with 6 red filaments and purple-blue stamens.—The genus has about 4 species in Japan and Formosa.

H. umbellata, Raker, from Formosa, has oblanceolate mucronate lvs., st. 3-5 in. high, and 3-10 fls. in an umbel, the segms. obtuse and scarcely 1 line wide. L. H. B.
