It's not C. angustifolium.

I have recently been attempting to identify a local species of Chlorogalum with little luck. It seems the taxonomy is a bit confused. I am sure it is either Chlorogalum pomeridianum or C. angustifolium based on the descriptions. Different sources say that C. pomeridianum has several varieties while the Oregon Flora (not out yet) says there are three subspecies, of which Chlorogalum pomeridianum ssp. austrooreganum Callahan (Southern Oregon amole) seems most reasonably similar.
I've put a few pictures and a brief description on the Mystery Bulbs http://…
Thanks!
