11mm over-all, left at apex into 3 linear lobes 3mm long. These lobes alternating in a line down under surface and appearing recurved at some stages. Fl lower st. if on pedicel 5.5 cm with 2 opp. searious bracts about 9mm length abov middle. Fl in axil next at 4on pedicel 4 [crossed out] cm with the 2 opp bracts below the mid- dle and another bract higher up. Three flo seem cut just on shorter pedicelle lower what is prob. a common subtending fl (5cm long & hence longer than the pedicels it subtends but still more like a bract than a fl). Pedicels also have shorter (+16-15mm) + searious bracts at base or higher (these searious bracts in all cases may be spathes.) It seems likely that the topmost fl. opens first. = C. exculenta Lindl not Robinson 5-34-34 Camassia quamash Greene BMQC P/63. Fl. Drage garden. If root is a bulb this is only poss in BMQC P. Fls arey pale blue (or rather white with tint of tinge) Percant fl seg 2cm long (fl spread out at its widest 1/2 inch diam.) Segs 5-6mm broad (hardly seems "narrow" BMfCP) Nerves and distinguishable only as seg. wether or when held up against light. Fls look regular but the narrowest (5mm) seg (below the somewhat declinate style) may stand slightly more separated from the others than the others do from each other. Bracts narrowly lanceolate, acum- iniate, 1/2-2 times as long as pedicel but not conspic- ous in the raceme. Anthers versital (dorsified) situated
