Bateman's Lily(Lilium x maculatum Cv.'Batemanniae',
Lilium elegans var. Batemanniae, Lilium batemanniae)
A rummage for your name big I did
With you in hand everyone I asked
And finally got to know your fame
Hunting stressful me not to be shamed
Some walkway I found you and amazed
*Heard that you're of Sukashi blessed
Spotless with tepals fine smooth are you
Leaves long and wide lush and bushy true
Borne in clusters of twelve to number
Each flower three to five inches in diameter
Stems of three and a half feet long are smooth
With long leaves of two inches in breadth
Oh Lily, grouped you're with more liliums
Of friends and cousins...awesome rhymes
None can point at only one and say 'so beautiful'
As Charming you're all truthfully eyeful
Note: * Bateman's Lily is a beautiful cultivar of the Japanese Sukashi-yuri lily.
Its Japanese name sukashi-yuri, literally "see-through lily" or perhaps "openwork lily",
originates from the gaps between its tepals.
The plant is also called iwato-yuri or iwa yuri referring to its rocky habitat,
or hama yuri from growing on the seashore.
In the Japanese horticultural trade, cultivated types are referred to as sukashiyuri
