I've found it heavy scented at night.  Somewhat stronger than L. leucanthum

I am overwhelmed with Lily Envy!  All I manage to keep alive here are a couple henryi and one 'Black Dragon'.   It's pretty pathetic.  Even the wild Lilium michiganensis that I discovered in the park behind the school next door failed to set seed pods.  If it comes back next year, I'll play pollinator myself for it.

What the heck is this? It doesn't key as, well, anything... :P It's slightly fragrant, a bit like the roots of Asarum caudatum.

Chinese; lanceolate foliage (25-40 mm x 7-10 mm); nectaries green, not papillose; tepals revolute, 40 mm long, 11 mm wide, green with purple-brown spots and shading; ovary about 15mm; style 27mm; filaments about 30mm; anthers orange, 9mm.

Shape reminds me of L. xanthellum. But that one is yellow so probably can't be it, pretty plant though.

I assume you have tried FOC. Do you have the book about chinese lilies?
It looks to me as something close to the primulinum/ochraceum/nepalense complex.
It MIGHT be an undescribed species, If so you have the chance.

Guff,

I take it that that is a hybrid seedling.  Very beautiful!  Any idea as to the parentage?  I have still to bloom my own seedlings, but I'm getting there. I only hope I get something half as attractive.

Zhirair,
Is Lady Alice a hybred of L henryi? I have a lilly about 2 meters high in flower which I bought as "white henryi" but it looks like your Lady Alice.

Peter,
Yes, it is a hybrid of l. henri with l. regale.
