Favorite Big Sur Wildflower

I really needed a change of pace, from the problems of overuse, to something much more beautiful, so I suspected you did too. This is the Calochortus venustus, or Mariposa Lily. My favorite.

Precious Calochortus, such favorites. C. luteus is holding strong in dry, dry grass here. Thanks for posting.
