Kathleen, what is Lilium henryi alba? 

Also, note the genus name is Prospero.

And that raised a question for me. If one Googles Prospero, one sees many hits where the name is given as Prospero autumanle as if the word Prospero were neuter. I would have expected the word Prospero to be masculine and the name of the plant to be Prospero autumnalis. 

Can anyone explain this?
