Lilium pardalinum
Lilium pardalinum, sometimes known as the panther lily or leopard lily, is a native of Oregon and California, where it usually grows in damp areas. Typically it grows to about two meters high; the tallest and most vigorous plants can reach up to 2.5 meters. The flowers are Turk's-cap shaped, red-orange, with numerous brown spots, usually flowering in July. The bulbs are small, and many are usually clustered together on a rhizomatous stock.
