Sometimes, you see a plant and you just have to buy it! This is what happened to me when I saw this lily, called Lilium nepalense, I fell in love with its beautiful pendent lime-green buds which open out to reflexed petals of pale chartreuse green with a wonderful maroon centre. This is a true species lily (rather than a hybrid), the only downside being that it isn't very hardy, so I will need to protect it in the winter - drat!!
