Henry's lily (Lilium henryi)

Description

Lilium henryi (Chinese: ----; pinyin: H-b-i b-ih-; literally: "Hubei lily"), sometimes called Tiger Lily or Henry's lily, is a native lily of the mountains of central China (Provinces of Guizhou, Hubei, Jiangxi). The flowers are orange, spotted black, and unscented. The petals are recurving (bent backwards), and eventually resemble those of the more widespread Turk's-cap lily (though not when young).
