Lilium columbianum
Also called Columbia Tiger Lily, Columbian Lily, Oregon Lily, Tiger Lily
Columbia lily is a native North American perennial lily grown from a bulb, with orange, darkly spotted flowers in summer. It needs a cool, moist root run and partial shade to thrive in gardens.
Lilium columbianum is a lily native to western North America. It is also known as the Columbia lily, Columbia tiger lily, or simply tiger lily (sharing the latter common name with several other lily species in its genus).
Lilium columbianum occurs in lowland and montane forest openings and meadows from southern British Columbia in Canada south to northern California and east to Montana in the northwestern United States. Mostly occurring below 2,000 m (6,600 ft), it usually blooms in June through early August. There are a few isolated populations at high elevations in the Sierra Nevada as far south as Fresno County.
