As you can see the colour isn't very variable, althought a darker form is shown in pic#4. >http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/files/… >http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/files/… >Jane, do you reckon this is your guy? The lighter form resembles the plants I have here, but there is no way to check the diagnostic features of the species from a photo of a plant in the ground. I'll have to dig one up next fall and check the details of the bract, prophyll, etc. Jane McGary
