J20160414-0098—Allium haematochiton—RPBG

            Allium haematochiton—red skinned onion. "Haematochiton" can be translated as "red skinned" and the bulb is truly a shade of red.  The flowers, while usually whitish, can also be pink.  The onion grows in the South Coast, Transverse, and Peninsular Ranges from San Luis Obispo County south into Baja California.  It is found most often on slopes and ridges but also in seasonally wet meadows.  Photographed at Regional Parks Botanic Garden located in Tilden Regional Park near Berkely, CA.
