Calochortus argillosus-The Clay Mariposa

The Mariposa Lilies really have to be considered some of the most stunningly marked plants ever. This one is endemic to the Central Coastal California area and as it's common name suggests it inhabits stiff clay soils.

Back to cold and damp after the false entrance of summer. Chilly, rainy and temps in the low 40's to mid 60's.

Cheers,
Mark
