beautiful species John, I love both!
Thank you for the ID, I was looking for this name in IPNI, but no results, Is var. kaichen very new species?

Rafa - Remember only the grayi is mine,  the majoense is pasted from a July 2005 posting from John Hampshire for Lesley.

I don't know how valid var. kaichen is, it originated from Chen Yi I hear.

Rafa,
I do not think this is formosanum. As you say look at the leaves.
Lilium formosanum
Leaves 10-12 cm long 4-7mm wide. Linear to narrowly lanceolate
Lilium longiflorum.
Leaves 8-15cm long 1-1.8cm wide. Lanceolate to oblong lanceolate.
Most trumpet lilies occur in China so I suggest a visit to the homepage of Flora of China.
Re kaichen. The plants from Chen Yi = Kaichen are often misnamed and sometimes varieties unknown to (western) botanists. Thus some people have resorted to call some of the varieties ‘kaichen’ to distinguish from other varieties. Not botanically correct but at least a name and one that works.
Yes Lesley, Majoense is another name for ochraceum but the whole complex ochraceum-primulinum-burmanicum-nepalense- is very floating. Majoense seems to differ from the ‘normal’ ochraceum in the flower shape.
Lijiangense is definitely yellow all over and has many flowers on good spikes.
Cheers

The L. lijiangense is very beautiful Gote. It looks very thick and waxy-textured too. I love that spotting.

John and Göte, thank you very much for clarify me about these Lilium, I don't know much about this genus, so thank you for this interesting information.

I find the black line intriguing. It only appears in certain Chinese lilies. I think it is a sign of relationship.

A lily I got from Chenyi as Lilium gloriosoides to replace an earlier correct one which I thought had died but is coming again.

But surely not gloriosoides which is a var or ssp of speciosa??? It certainly isn't very Gloriosa-like. ???

Lesley,

I think his comment "An earlier correct one" was a give-away that he didn't think that the new replacement was correct.  ;D  I rather like the replacement.  Interesting colour, form and substance to it. I wonder what it actually is?
