[puma-news] Mariposa lily

Unfolding now in meadows around Magnolia, this beautiful flower is
abundant in some years, scarce in others. It is not really a lily; its
family is Calochortaceae. Ours are white, but they may be other colors
in other parts of the country. I have also attached a pale lavender one
I saw in Utah.

Best,
J
