Brodiaea lactea, Wats. (B. hyacinthina var. lactea, Baker). In the type, has the habit of B. laxa, but the fls. have a short tube with a rotate corolla, and are white, with green midvein; filaments deltoid. Calif, to Brit. Col., in many forms. Watson combines the Hesperoscordum lacteum and H. hyacinthinum of Lindley, into this species B. lactea, thereby not recognizing a B. hyacinthina. Baker, however, unites the B. lactea form with B. hyacinthina, describing var. lactea as "more slender than the type, with white fls. and longer pedicels." —Var. lilacina, Wats., is much stronger, very bulbiferous, grows in wet, heavy soils, and has a larger fl., which is usually lilac-colored. Var. major, Purdy. Like var. lilacina, but fls. white. The above text is from the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture.
