The numerous lanceolate leaves that are scattered around the stem are hairy on the veins and edges. The stem is reddish.

distribution

Lilium jankae is native to Bosnia , southern Croatia , Serbia , the Bulgarian Rhodopes and Romanian Transylvania at altitudes between 600 and 1300 m on loam and scree soils with little humus.

Systematics

As part of the Carniolicum group, which is systematically difficult to dissolve, its systematic position was long unclear, so it was mostly listed as a variety of the Carniolan lily ( Lilium carniolicum ) or with this in the rank of a subspecies as a variety of the Pyrenean lily ( Lilium pyrenaicum ). However, a molecular genetic study of the group confirmed its position as a species in its own right.
