'Lilium leichtlinii var. maximowiczii'
(Species / Wild Lily)
This orange color variant of Lilium leichtlinii enjoys a greater range in nature than its yellow cousin. Extending into Korea and Manchuria, it is considered easier in cultivation than the type. The Turk's Cap brilliant orange flowers are heavily spotted in purple-brown. An unspotted variant once grown and offered by the late Edgar Kline is known as ' Lilium leichtlinii maximowiczii unicolor. "Unicolor" meaning without spots.
