Those wild photos are wonderful!  I love seeing the whole plant, as well as where they live (and who they live with).  And being able to see detail.Thank youRick

Greetings,

  I've been blessed with unexpected extra free time this Calochortus season so I was just able to make a trip to the Eastern Sierra and Northern Arizona. I was lucky to find 2 mass blooms - one of C. kennedyi and one of C. flexuosus.  I had never seen flexuosus in person before. In addition, I caught another first-sight of Calochortus aureus in Canyon de Chelly. It was early for that taxon but a perfect canyon-rim microhabitat delivered an early bloom.

  I'm driving to Yellowstone at the end of the month and hope to catch more of the Great Basin/Mountain West taxa I haven't yet seen. I've updated the album:
