Lilium papilliferum
Lilium papilliferum is a species of the lily genus (Lilium) in the Oriental hybrids division (VII). The species, about which little is known, has only been collected a few times and is native to north-central and south-central China. Its deep dark red flower color is unique in the genus.
Lilium papilliferum is a rare plant native to the provinces of Shaanxi, Sichuan, and northeastern Yunnan in the People's Republic of China. However, in the early 21st century, growers and collectors obtained an unidentified species that turned out to be Lilium papilliferum, collected from neighboring Tibet to the west. This discovery suggests that the species is also native to Tibet.
