Nude Mariposa Lily

Calochortus nudus

Description 2

Calochortus nudus is named "nude" because its petals are simple and relatively unadorned when compared with the related C. elegans. The latter is similar in many respects except that its petals are so hairy that it is given the common name "Cat's Ear". Calochortus, like other lilies generally have leaves with parallel veins, three petals and three petal-like sepals.

Distribution (circa 2001) 3

Moist grassy or rocky areas, bog and lake margins from the Klamath Range to the High Cascade Range; 1200-2500 m.
