fairy lantern / white globe lilyCalochortus albus
Liliaceae
These were fairly small, similar to those I saw last year at Fort Ord. I normally think of fairy lanterns as being larger and in fewer numbers like at Point Lobos and Garland Ranch. I wouldn't be surprised if someone came along and started splitting these into subspecies. I was impressed to see so many at Jack's Peak.
Gosh, what delicate little beauties! Lucky you to get to see them:-)
ReplyDeleteI do feel lucky. It can be challenging sometimes to focus on what we do have, rather than lamenting what we don't have, eh?
ReplyDeletewow those are too cute, so pretty
