Tiger lilies are one of the brightest and most conspicuous flowers of moist, open forests, openings, and clearings in central British Columbia. The bright orange flowers with deep red or purple spots and petals curved back toward the base are unmistakable. Tiger lilies can have up to 30 flowers per stem. Flowers of this species were eaten by First Nations peoples of interior British Columbia, but are said to be peppery or bitter.
