Hello.

Was out camping yesterday in central British Columbia Canada. On the drive
back, I spotted a vibrantly colored flower along the roadside. I had
forgotten my digital camera, so I picked it and put in a bottle with
water.
Took some close up pics of it when we got home.

Can anyone tell me the name of this flower?

Well, I checked with my mom because she has a few just like this growing at
the side of the house, she tells me it's a lily, but didn't know what kind.
I looked up tiger lily and found this:

It's similar but the colour is different.

There's also one called a liberty bell:

and one called four seasons:

I think the four seasons is the closest but the spots aren't quite right.

Here is the one that was growing at the side of my mom's house

They are quite striking.
