Yellow Cat's Ear gets its name because looking at the fuzzy hairs in the flower is a lot like looking in a cat's ear. It's a common bulb up to about 4,000 feet and offers up springtime color in shady forests that are covered with pine needles most of the year. The flower is about a half inch in diameter. Calochortus monophyllus
What a beautiful little gem! Only half an inch in diameter! The picture makes it look so big. The texture of the little cilia contrast with the smooth pistils in the middle. A lovely blossom. Elaine @ 06-12-2010
