A flower in the game reserve? (5,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tiger lily

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'a flower' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both plants as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps there's a link between them I don't understand?

'game reserve?' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'game' could be 'tig' (playground game) and 'tig' is found in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

'in the' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for tiger lily that I've seen is " Plant".)
