Lilium bosniacum (Bosnian Lily) (Beck) Fritsch 1909
plant species in the liliaceae family
Lilium bosniacum is a lily native to Bosnia and Herzegovina. It is also known as zlatni ljiljan (Bosnian for golden lily) and Bosanski ljiljan (Bosnian lily). L. bosniacum has often been lumped and split and lumped again. Some results of molecular studies support it as an infraspecific taxon of Lilium carniolicum. Lilium bosniacum, together with Lilium albanicum and Lilium jankae have been treated as varieties of Lilium carniolicum. However, extensive DNA-analyses have shown that this group is polyphyletic.

The yellow, five-petaled flowers appear in late spring or early summer. The fruit is an inedible berry. The plant usually grows 4
Prunus fenzliana (Fenzls Almond) Fritsch 1892
plant species in the rosaceae family
Prunus fenzliana is a species of wild almond native to the Caucasus areas of Turkey, Armenia, Azerbaijan and Iran, preferring to grow at 1400-3500 m above sea level. On the basis of morphology it has been long thought to be one of the wild species that contributed to the origin of the cultivated almond (Prunus dulcis). Genetic testing of both nuclear and chloroplast DNA has confirmed that it is the closest relative (and presumed lone ancestor) of Prunus dulcis.
