Lilium bosniacum (Beck) Fritsch

Lilium bosniacum is a lily native to Bosnia and Herzegovina. It is also known as zlatni ljiljan ( Bosnian for golden lily) and Bosanski ljiljan (Bosnian lily).
L. bosniacum has often been lumped and split and lumped again. Some results of molecular studies [1] support it as an infraspecific taxon of Lilium carniolicum. Lilium bosniacum, together with Lilium albanicum and Lilium jankae have been treated as varieties of Lilium carniolicum.
However, extensive DNA-analyses [2] [3] have shown that this group is polyphyletic.
Lilium bosniacum Beck ex Fritsch 1909 Section 3b Syn.: L. carniolicum var. bosniacumno
Bulb: ovoid, 6–7 cm in diameter, yellowish.
Stem: 30–90 cm.
Leaves: densely scattered, horizontal with tips curved upwards, narrowly lanceolate with slightly hairy margins.
Flowers: 1–6 in a raceme, nodding, fragrant. Tepals strongly revolute, typical Turk's cap-shape, wax-like texture, yellow to orange without spots, ~6 cm in diameter. Seeds with delayed hypogeal germination. Flowering time ~July. 2n=24.
Origin: Bosnia and Herzegovina.
The golden lily is a traditional symbol of the Bosniak people,[ dubious ] and was a heraldic national symbol of medieval Bosnia and a coat of arms of the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina. [4] [5][ clarification needed] It's symbolism was also used for the Order of the Golden Lily.
