I enjoyed the article about a species, which bloom only in Tibron. I never heard about the particular Calochortus before. I lived nearby Tibron for a few years, and I know there are many rare wildflowers, which bloom only in that small area. I never visited John Thomas Howell Wildflower Preserve in Tibron, but that must be the place where you can find unusual looking Calochortus tiburonensis. I checked the article about the Wildflower Preserve. Unfortunately, they do not mention about Calochortus tiburonensis. Instead they describe another rare wildflowers. This year I moved from Tibron area to Palo Alto area, and I found abundant pure white fairy lanterns, Calochortus Albus in the Santa Cruz Mountain. A plain yellow Calochortus bloomed at sunny hillside. So beautiful. *Makiko Goto-Widerman* On Fri, Jul 19, 2019 at 10:36 AM Mary Sue Ittner <msittner@mcn.org> wrote: > Our Calochortus wiki pages have always been full of wonderful > information and photographs.
