Field Notes

Notes:

If it weren't for the way the flowers are clustered, I'd think it was false garlic.

I thought that first, Nayeli but the flowers are not clustered like that.... all coming out from a central point. Rather they are arranged almost like hyacynth... a "spray" I think is the term...?
