Calochortus
Pacific Rim (Tue, 15 Nov 2011 21:59:46 PST)

From Ron's 2004 list:

04-82 Calochortus venustus Central Sierra Nevada, Fresno Co., CA. 5640'.
40/$4.00. 75/$7.00. This may be the most variable form I have seen.
Starting with a few whites with intricate inner markings, then pale yellow
through coppery apricot individuals with deep red eyespots and darker
striations, the colors continue through orange-red to dark red-burgundy,
darker than the Mt. Pinos form. Exposed rocky embankments on granitic
substrate. Mixed conifer/black oak forest. A more hardy population, at least
to zone 6.
