Lilium fargesii is a Chinese species of plants in the lily family native to Hubei, Shaanxi, Sichuan and Yunnan provinces of China. Lilium fargesii occurs naturally on the edge of woods in  mountains at elevations of 1500–1800 meters. The plant grows 6–8 inches (15–20 cm) tall with a slim stem, long narrow leaves and surmounted by a raceme of 1–6 flowers.

published in 'Journal de Botanique' (Morot) Issue 6( Vols.17–18) on pages 317–318.
