Wiki Additions-Calochortus

Thanks, Mary Gerritsen, for posting those images. I'm a newbie with
Calochortus, but the few I've grown have me hooked.
Some of them look a lot like frits at first glance, and something about the
small dark red ones, especially Calochortus pringlei, remind me of the
"chocolate cosmos".
Hmmm...I wonder if I can make room for an expanded Calochortus collection
beside the Fritillaria collection?
