The long leaves on the left are the lily's, which have tall stems. The striped leaves on the right are of a flower--I don't know the species--that grows close to the ground. The plantings at Longwood are often in stages, from ground covers to tall-stemmed plants. FYI, there are some 9,000 species of plants at the botanical gardens. I'm planning to visit Longwood on Tuesday for the spring blooms.
