Thank you Mary Sue for posting the photos. Calochortus kennedyi is one of my most favorite species in this genus. It's wonderful to see the photos of them in habitat. My favorite is the one with the Calochortus surrounded by Allium (probably amplectens). It's probably not the best place for them here in the Bay Area but I am experimenting with them from seeds in terracotta pots and a very well-draining mix. They're starting to go into dormancy for the first time. Nhu Berkeley, CA where we're getting a dash of late season rain. ---- http://www.flickr.com/photos/xerantheum/
