tiger lilies

Orange spotted flowers

Tiger lilies are tall flowering plants with orange petals marked by dark spots, resembling a tiger's markings.

The flowers curve backward dramatically, with prominent stamens.

Native to Asia, they grow wild and in gardens, blooming in summer.

The tiger lilies along the fence were in full bloom.
