Lilium taliense ( Chinese 大理 百合 , Pinyin Dàlǐ bǎihé ), synonym also Lilium feddei is a species from the genus of lilies ( Lilium ) in the Asiatic section .
description
Lilium taliense is a perennial herbaceous plant that reaches heights of 70 to 150 centimeters. The stem is papillary and sometimes dotted purple on the surface . The leaves , freely distributed around the stem, are linear or narrow-lanceolate, between 8 and 10 cm long and 6 to 8 mm wide. They are 1-annoying and papillary at the leaf margin.
It blooms from July to August with two to five (in culture up to 13) nodding, fragrant flowers in a panicle . The hermaphrodite flowers are threefold. The six bracts (tepals) are oval to lanceolate and 4.5 to 5 cm long and about 1 cm wide. The inner tepals are slightly wider than the outer ones. The basic color of the flowers is white with purple dots. The anthers are 8 to 10 mm long, the pollen are orange to brown and the filaments are about 3 cm long. The stylus is 1.5 to 1.7 cm long and the scar is 1.4 cm to 1.6 cm thick. The nectaries are neither papilla nor ciliate. The seeds ripen in September in oval, brown seed pods that are about 3.5 cm long and 2 cm wide .
The onions are oval and reach a diameter of about 2.5 cm. They are covered with white lanceolate scales.
The number of chromosomes is 2n = 24.
distribution
Lilium taliense grows on grassy slopes or in mountain forests at altitudes from 2600 to 3600 m above sea level.
The species is widespread in the provinces of Sichuan and Yunnan in the People's Republic of China . One unsecured deposit is believed to be in the Tibet Autonomous Region .
Varieties
In addition to the nominotypical taxon, there is a previously not described variety with the proposed name Lilium taliense var. Kaichen , which has yellow flowers and was found in the Muli Autonomous County in Sichuan . The name Kaichen is derived from the name of a botanical garden where the subspecies was first discovered. One specimen is in culture in the Edinburgh Botanical Gardens .
