Chocolate lily (Fritillaria biflora) Flower

Chocolate lily (Fritillaria biflora), a species of plant native to California, and endemic to California. Fritillaria biflora is called "chocolate lily" because it resembles the color of chocolate. It should not be confused with Arthropodium strictum, which is also called "chocolate lily" but which resembles the scent of chocolate rather than the color. As seen about two-thirds of the way up on the Hazard Peak trail (a 6.1 miles roundtrip) at Moñtana de Oro State Park, Los Osos, CA 18 March 2011, on a docent-led walk by Norma Wightman.
