L. tigrinum) is an Asian species of lily, native to China, Japan, Korea, and the Russian Far East.
[1] It is widely planted as an ornamental because of its showy orange-and-black flowers, and sporadically occurs as a garden escapee in North America, particularly the eastern United States including New England,[2] and has made incursions into some southern states such as Georgia.
[2] A case study of the successful treatment of a cat that ingested this particular species was published in 2007.
[9] The cultivar 'Splendens' has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.
[10] In Taiwan, both the flower and bulbs are used as food, as are the other related species: L. brownii var.
