Lilium grayi : ウィキペディア英語版 | Lilium grayi
Lilium grayi (Gray's lily, Orange bell lily, Roan lily)〔 is a perennial plant that is endemic to the Eastern USA states of North Carolina, Virginia, and Tennessee, growing in moist, acid soil in the Appalachian mountains on higher elevation meadows, bogs, and seeps. The plant was introduced to Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew in 1890 and was featured in the Kew Bulletin in 1892.〔 ==Taxonomy== The species was named to honor Asa Gray, an eminent American botanist of the mid-19th century who discovered ''Lilium grayi'' in 1840 in the Appalachian mountains on Roan Mountain. At the time, Gray wasn't sure that it was a unique species, thinking that it might be a variety of ''Lilium canadense''. He found more plants there in 1879 on a trip with Charles Sprague Sargent. Sereno Watson, curator at the Gray Herbarium of Harvard University, found several differences from ''Lilium canadense'', confirming that it was a distinct species, and named the plant in honor of his colleague.〔(IPNI Listing for ''Lilium Grayi'' )〕〔
