Cette magnifique et étrange fleur est une sous-espèce de Lys (Lys "Henri" ou lilium "henryi") originaire de Chine. Très particulier, il présente des fleurs abricot, aux pétales très récurvés, en forme de turban turc, ponctués d'"épines" vers le centre. Je la trouve fascinante, pas vous ? J'ai découvert cette plante cet été, au Parc Floral de Paris (France)

This wonderful and strange flower is a sub-species of Lily. To be more precise, it is a Lilium henryi - sometimes called Tiger Lily or Henry's lily. It is a native lily of montane central China. The flowers are orange, spotted black, and unscented. The petals are recurving, and eventually become Turk's-caps, it raised prominent “starfish-like” papillae. It is a fascinating flower, don't you think ? This summer was the very first time I saw it. I found it in the Parc Floral de Paris (France)
