''Calochortus fimbriatus'' is a California species of flowering plant in the lily family known by the common name Late-blooming mariposa lily. It is native to the coastal mountain ranges of southern Monterey, San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara and northern Ventura counties, where it is a member of the chaparral flora. ''Calochortus fimbriatus'' is a bulb-forming perennial herb producing a slender, branching stem 30 to 110 centimeters tall.〔Gerritsen, M. E. and R. Parsons. (''Calochortus'': Mariposa lilies & their relatives. ) Timber Press, 2007. 164.〕 There is a basal leaf up to 40 centimeters long which appears in January and withers long before the plant blooms in late June or early July. The bloom continues until mid-August.〔Smith, Clifton F. (1998). ''A Flora of the Santa Barbara Region, California'' (2nd ed.). Santa Barbara Botanic Gardens & Capra Press. p. 96.〕 The inflorescence consists of 2 to 6 erect, bowl-shaped flowers. Each flower has three narrow sepals and three wider petals. The petals are usually tan or cream colored on the outside and yellowish on the inside with variable number of flecks of dark purple, and a coating of hairs on the inner surface and top rim. The fruit is a three-angled capsule. ''Calochortus fimbriatus'' blooms more vigorously the year after a wildfire.〔〔(Flora of North America, ''Calochortus fimbriatus'' )〕 This species is listed as "rare, threatened or endangered in California and elsewhere" and "fairly endangered in California" (CNPS: 1B.2).〔(California Native Plant Society Inventory of Rare and Endangered Plants )〕 File:Calochortus fimbriatus inflorescense.jpeg|Inflorescence File:Calochortus fimbriatus flower with bee.jpeg|Flower with bumblebee ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Calochortus fimbriatus」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
