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, B.R. 1639, 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." G.G. III. 20:459.—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.
