location
Klamath National Forest, west of Yreka (Siskiyou County, California, US)family
Liliaceae
notes Habit of Calochortus persistens, with its typical wide leaf, not whithered at flowering time. (I originally speculated this may be the origin of the specific epithet...but I read it actually refers to the petals, which are marescent (i.e. persistent) on the (nodding) fruit. Apparently this is the only species in the genus with marescent perianth.camera Shot on a Canon D60 at f16, 1/60 sec, ISO 100, with flash, using a Canon 50mm Compact macro lens.
photo category: Plant - annual/perennial
