| Lillium occidentale ??? More question marks because it seems to fit the bill, but it's not nearly as vibrant as the photos i've seen on the interwebs. Maybe this one was just a bit past prime and fading out, either way, it was about 6' tall, growing in standing water amid Darlingtonia californica, not far from the ocean and near the Redwood groves. I could totally get into growing and collecting the lilies, since I opened up some more room at the back of the rock garden I might just have to start looking around. Cheers, Mark |
