---

Shewy lily or Japanese lily, Lilium speciosum. Adapted from Mrs. Augusta Withers' illustration in Benjamin Maund's The Botanist. Handcoloured zincograph by C. Chabot drawn by Miss M. A. Burnett from her Plantae Utiliores: or Illustrations of Useful Plants, Whittaker, London, 1842. Miss Burnett drew the botanical illustrations, but the text was chiefly by her late brother, British botanist Gilbert Thomas Burnett (1800-1835).
