Elegant member of the lily family. Star-shaped blooms greenish-white, 3 petals and 3 sepals in a loose raceme. I measured flowers in the above plant at 18 mm in diameter. Leaves are grass-like, greyish-green to light green in colour. Onion-like bulbs for roots.
Common. Found in moist meadows in Saskatchewan. Could be confused with Zigadenus venenosus, however that plant's flowers are in dense raceme, and are gold in colour.
Height listed to 60 cm tall in the reference guides, I measured the above plant at 53 cm tall.
Took the above photos June 23rd, in a moist field 30 km southeast of Regina, SK.
