Lilium wallichianum is a species of bulbous plants in the lily family that is native to the Indian Subcontinent and Myanmar. It can be found in India, Nepal, Bhutan, and Myanmar, growing on slopes and grasslands at elevations between 1,200 to 2,000 meters. The plant has stoloniferous bulbs and can grow up to 2 meters tall with dark green, linear leaves. Its trumpet-shaped flowers are white to creamy-yellow and bloom late in the season. This species is challenging to grow in gardens, requiring a moist, slightly acidic soil with good drainage and light dappled shade. It was named after Dr. Nathaniel Wallich, a Danish plant hunter, botanist, and physician.
