Erythronium grandiflorum
Liliaceae
Collected: Tumwater Canyon 19/5/12
Sample 6
The Yellow Glacier Lily stands up to about 30 cm tall. This specimen was found in a dried out area that looked to have previously been muddied from a melting snowbank. Which is typical, as they are typically found at the edge of snow melt. A single flower shoots far up and droops over, facing downward towards the wide outspread leaves beneath it.
