Lilium pumilum, commonly known as coral lily or low lily, is a plant in the family Liliaceae, native to Siberia, Mongolia, northern China, and Korea. The specific epithet pumilum is a commonly used term in botanical nomenclature: it translates as “dwarfish” and is frequently employed to distinguish a small species or variety from larger members of the same genus. In Taiwan, both the flowers and the bulbs are used as food.
