When I saw the White Camas I thought it would be related to the Genus Camassia. I don't normally look up classifications of plants, but had to check this out. Found out they are not even in the same family. One reference said they are both in the lily order, but it looks like some identifications were changed along the way. They do resemble each other, so I guess that is why some people got the two mixed up and ended up either very sick or dead when they ate the White Camas.

Enjoyed reading about the wildflowers in Canada, but hated to hear about the Western Wood Lily's demise if picked. Such a pretty flower.

I have just discovered a container with sprouts on this Western Wood Lily seeds.
So I am going to try to be part of the Conservation effort of this plant.

Way to go Caroline!
