Dear Susan; Apparently you are correct. However I would put the name of Hymenocallis virescens to it until this is proven to be incorrect, as this species now contains both H. pedunculata, and H. macleana which were regarded as distinct species at one time. Thus there must (even if slight) perforce be variants within the species H. virescens. Cheers, John E.
