Hi Jes,
Your lilium looks somewhat like Lilium tigrinum.

Jes,

I am assuming that these are two different liliums?  The first looks orange, and the second looks pink, so I don't think one would be fading to the other?  The first one looks like Lilium lancifolium (L. tigrinum), and while the second one has the same form, the colour is wrong for that.  Beautiful though.

I agree it look like Lilium tigrinum = L lancifolium.
However, cannot see any bulbils and tigrinum is rarely hairy in that way.
It could be Lilium lechtlinii v maximoviczii which I prefer to call L maximoviczii.
It could also be an asiatic hybrid in which case I cannot give a name at all.
We really need to see more of the whole plant.
I post an old scanned picture of tigrinum. I cannot fine any of maximowiczii.

Hi Jes, I think you might have Lilium davidii which is a red/orange flower plus the pink one I think is Lilium cernuum this is a variable colour and the flowers look like correct but need picture of the stems please cheers Ian the Christie kind.

I agree that a form of davidii is also likely with the tuft of hairs and all. As to the second being cernuum I doubt it. The colour may be right but the leaves seem too broad and the flowers too open. Jes take a look at my posting under Lilium 2009 July 14th and say what you think.

Isn't there a brown stem bulbil on the left hand leaf visible in the pic?  There's something round and brown at the base of that leaf anyway?  Not black, like they usually are, but I figured it may just have been immature?

Here's Lilium leichtlinii var maximowiczii, for comparison, but I'd but my money on both of the lilies in question being L. lancifolium or hybrids thereof ('Pink Tiger', for example).

They indeed start as whitish and darken but at the time of flowring they usually are black.
