Cardiocrinum cordatum
Also called Lily
Heart Leaved Lily (Cardiocrinum cordatum) is a Northeast Asian bulbous woodland lily with large, showy, fragrant flowers, native to Japan and the Russian islands of Sakhalin and the Kurils. It is grown as an ornamental in shade gardens, and it needs cool, moist, humus-rich conditions with shade from the midday sun.
Cardiocrinum cordatum, known as turep in the Ainu languages, is a Northeast Asian species of plant in the lily family. It is native to Japan and to certain Russian islands in the Sea of Okhotsk (Sakhalin, Kuril Islands).
Because of its large, showy flowers, Cardiocrinum cordatum is sometimes cultivated as an ornamental in regions outside its native range, though not as frequently as the related C. giganteum.
