I photographed this Lilium Tigrinum Splendens in July 2019, when I was on vacation in Russia.
Blooming Lilies, Irises and Roses are very often seen in the courtyards.
I really like tiger lilies, but this does not mean that this particular lily is my favorite.
Gardeners say that Tiger Lily needs to be planted away from most other varieties of lilies.
Since Tiger lilies are natural carriers of the mosaic virus, they are therefore dangerous for many other varieties of lilies.
The mosaic virus is transmitted to other plants by sucking insects.
And therefore, the gardener needs to know which lilies are susceptible to infection of this virus, and which are resistant to it.
The height of this lily is about a meter and above. Flowering is very long, as the flowers bloom alternately.
Lilium Tigrinum Splendens is one of the most unpretentious.
I was very interested to know if she had a scent, so I sniffed her and caught a very weak aroma.
