Re: seed-grown calochortus pictures Georgie,

I know that Calochortus can grow in B.C., as I have seen acres of macrocarpa in flower in the dry interior, and others in the mountains.I'm not so sure of success near the shore, though.
I have a few wispy seedlings for which I have hope.That is odd that you couldn't access the pictures on Audrey's site. I double-clicked on the url I had in my message, scrolled to Calochortus in the first box, and got the following impressive list of species, most of which have photographs.

Most seem to be flowering for her in 3 or 4 years from seed, but some took longer. C. dunnii, for instance, took 7 years.
