This is one of the most deeply enigmatic wildflowers we’ve encountered, a mysterious forest dweller, blooming as a large, white, ghostly apparition for a brief window of time in the spring, then disappearing back underground to a seemingly infinitely-long lived hidden bulb.

It’s like a dream, making you wonder if the plant was really ever there.

Fawn lilies (which occur across the northern Pacific rim), are apparently edible, although we can’t imagine eating one. The giant white fawn lily, one of our more widely distributed species produces interesting leathery, reptilian leaves that are mottled in color – mostly green and brown – a kind of dappled camouflage perhaps, like a sleeping fawn in the forest.

Occurring from British Columbia south to California, this plant typically appears on rocky ground in pristine coast range mountains, rain forests, and forest clearings. Yet, it probably once was more common elsewhere – in breezy low elevation meadows and prairies –places without summer heat – but where more exposed to human observers, it may have been harvested to exhaustion, paved over, or fed upon by beasts and boars. All of that said, it can probably grow in a Seattle or Portland backyard with some care and protection.  

The precise germination and growth requirements of this plant are a mystery to us. Like other bulb producing plants we recommend trying to sow in late summer or fall, outside, in containers that are left exposed to the rain and elements in partial shade, all winter. Seedlings usually emerge very briefly in the first spring, as a tiny, single, grass-like stalk (so small you might miss it if you are not paying attention). These little green tendrils appear for mere days or weeks, before retreating underground to remain dormant for the next 11 months. The second year they repeat this, but are slightly bigger, with a few more leaflets, again for only a brief few days or weeks. The third year they do the same, but are slightly bigger still. By the 3-to-4-year time frame there is usually a small but recognizable little bulb that can be carefully and gently transplanted into a permanent location. From there, expect another several years before the first plants emerge. This is not a instant-gratification species. It is one that can be a challenge even to germinate.  

Giant white fawn lily seems to prefer well-drained soil, and at maturity is a bit over 1-foot in height.

Approximately 30 seeds (0.2 grams).

Casual Sport Jacket
This jacket isn't a jacket if you are going to need to really be dressed up but one that is perfect for jeans. Size: I am 6 foot and 185 lbs. Size 33 pants and I would need a Large in this jacket. Pocket square makes this looks more casual.

It Fitted Perfectly!!
I live in Barbados and was so afraid to purchase this blazer online for my husband. We had a wedding to go to and the blue is matching my dress I wore. The colour is rich just as seen, the quality of the blazer is100% does not feel cheap. I am so pleased with this buy my husband just absolutely loved it as well and he got lots of compliments! I wish they could make more variety of fabric though, I would definitely buy all!!
