08/05/2020	I believe this photo is of the similar, but not so rare, Triteleia hyacinthina. T. hyacinthina flowers have a green or bluish stripe on the outer surface of each lobe. The stamen filaments are triangular and form a ring around the shallow bowl-shaped corolla tube. All that is a good match here. Other images for Allium tuolumnense on CalPhotos show how the stamens differ from T. hyacinthina. They're longer and thinner and don't join up to form a ring. Also there's no bowl-shaped tube inside them around the ovary.
