Voted 10/10 | seen it in Prokletije too, would probably be Lillium Montenegrum Albanicum cos it was right at the border! :) | | Posted Mar 19, 2007 11:06 am |

Hasn't voted | Yeah you're right.
It is also possible to found it in areas around border with Montenegro.
But this flower as symbol of Middle age Bosnian kingdom is pretty much more connected with Bosnia (Latin name of this flower also say that)... :)

Voted 10/10 | Is it the same lily as on your flag? | | Posted Mar 19, 2007 6:41 pm |

Hasn't voted | Yes, the old flag.
The shield on the flag was actually reconstruction of the old symbol of Bosnian kings. Blue surface with white stripe and 6 Bosnian Lillies. | | Posted Mar 20, 2007 8:25 am |

Voted 10/10 | Looks like the leopard lilies that grow in the Sierra Nevada in California. They smell wonderful! | | Posted Jul 3, 2007 12:51 pm |

These lilies also smells beautiful. They have very strong intensive smell.

Voted 10/10 | Reminds me a lot of the lilies on Mt. Si and Mt. Pugh. I have a picture of one of them. Excellent picture! | | Posted Dec 4, 2007 5:56 pm |

It is very possible that there are some similar ones like this one.
This one is very typical for middle Balkan peninsula.
All the best! | | Posted Dec 5, 2007 6:22 am |
