--><span class="statement" id="st-undefined" data-properties=""><b>Bulbs </b>branching dichotomously, 2–5.1 × 5.1–19 cm, 0.2–0.5 times taller than long, annual growth evident, generally forming discrete rounded module; scales usually 2-segmented but often unsegmented or 3-segmented, longest 1–2.7 cm. <b>Stems</b> to 2.8 m, strongly clonal, forming dense colonies. <b>Leaves</b> ± evenly distributed along stem, in 1–5 whorls or partial whorls, 3–18 leaves per whorl, usually horizontal and drooping at the tips, sometimes ± ascending, 8.2–24.5 × 0.9–5.6 cm, 3–12 times longer than wide; blade usually elliptic, sometimes ± oblanceolate, rarely lanceolate or obovate, margins usually straight but occasionally ± undulate. <b>Racemes</b> 1–28-flowered. <b>Flowers</b> rarely fragrant; sepals and petals reflexed 1/4 along length from base, yellow, yellow-orange, or orange proximally, usually darker red-orange to red or sometimes pale orange on distal 1/5–1/4; sepals (5.9–)6.6–10.4 × 1–2.1 cm; petals 5.9–10.2 × 1.1–2.5 cm; stamens strongly exserted; filaments often parallel over much of length, then spreading widely, diverging 14°–22° from axis; anthers usually purple, sometimes pale magenta or magenta, rarely yellowish, 1.1–2.2 cm; pollen orange-brown, rust, red-orange, or deep orange; pistil 5.6–7.5 cm; ovary 1.4–2.2 cm; pedicel 8.4–28 cm. <b>Capsules</b> 2.9–5.7 × 1.3–1.9 cm, 2–3.7 times longer than wide. <b>Seeds</b> 147–264. <b>2n</b> = 24.</span><!--

|discussion=<p>Quite variable in flower size, color, and leaf size and shape, <i></i>subsp.<i> pardalinum</i> is the easiest of the western lilies to cultivate. In gardens and in the wild, rhizomes branch regularly to produce clones of stems, and the resulting colonies often become large and the soil matted with bulbs.</p><!--
--><p>Along the length of the Sierra <i>Nevada</i> this subspecies is replaced at higher elevations by congeners: to the north by <i></i>subsp.<i> shastense</i>, then by <i>L. parvum</i>, and finally by <i>L. kelleyanum</i> in the high Sierra to the south. In the Klamath Mountains it gives way to <i>L. pardalinum </i>subsp.<i> vollmeri</i> in Del Norte County, <i></i>subsp.<i> wigginsii</i> in northern Humboldt County, and <i></i>subsp.<i> shastense</i> in northeastern Trinity County. The range disjunction between the Coast Ranges in Santa Barbara County and the peninsular ranges in San Diego County probably exists because <i>L. parryi</i> replaces <i>L. pardalinum </i>subsp.<i> pardalinum</i> in the intervening mountains. Due to its poor condition, a collection from the Tehachapi Mountains—presumably from Kern County where the plant is otherwise unknown—cannot be confirmed as this taxon.</p>
