Calochortus Pursuits: Finding California’s Beautiful Grass | SF

Submitted by the Event Organizer

California is home to the lion’s share of species in the genus Calochortus – growing in every county of the state. Bay Area residents are lucky enough to live in the center of diversity for the genus. Such a locale is both a blessing and a curse – as the desire to see them all can be overwhelming.

Kipp has spent many spring and early summer drives from the Bay Area to Southern California in search of these beautiful flowers. His presentation will include the natural history of this fascinating genus, a sampling of most of the species within day’s drive of Berkeley and the habitats where these flowers can be found.

Come to the talk and preview several numerous photos from his past trips in search of this “beautiful grass.”
