 FIELD NOTES 

• The Accession number consists of the YEAR of acquisition followed by the RECORD NUMBER
• The Code consists of a concatenation of the RECORD NUMBER, the PLANT TYPE code, (d, o, p or s), and the GENERATION NUMBER.
  The colour coding used for this Field matches that used on the Garden map.
  
  • C. cathayanum, Brown, RGB(128,0,0), Index colour =9
  • C. cordatum, Red, RGB(255,0,0), Index colour =3
  • C. cordatum glehnii, Orange, RGB(255,153,0), Index colour =45
  • C. giganteum, Blue, RGB(0,0,255), Index colour =5
  • C. giganteum yunnanense, Green, RGB(0,128,0), Index colour =10
• The Date is the date of planting, not purchase.
• The Generation. Purchased plants are designated as Generation zero.
• The Strain entry refers to either the original plant of a line, St.n, or the Record number of the origin of the plant concerned.
• The Age field shows the current age or 'Dead' for plants which have flowered.
  The initial age for offsets is defined as 1 'though some may be older. The initial age for seedlings is zero.
  The initial age for plants is a guess based on the size of the bulb which is often wrong, as indicated by the 'Age at flowering'!
• The Number is the number of plants in a group as a single Record. A value of 100 for seedlings indicates that there were too many to count!
• AaF is the Age at Flowering.
• The Position is based on a map of the garden divided by a 4m. grid , (Horizontal by letter, Vertical by number).
  Plants which have died, been sold or potted on have their positions in grey text and those which are lost have a question mark!
