Come celebrate (and try to find) our endangered flower! The Fritillaria gentneri, one of Oregon's rarest plants, is found only in isolated populations in Southern Oregon. The greatest concentration of this rare and showy red bell is found in the native woodlands immediately surrounding Historic Jacksonville. Growing mostly in dry, open fir and oak woodlands, this fritillaria grows to a height of 20 to 50 inches with two to thirteen large dark red (maroon) bells that are mottled with pale yellow spots. The sturdy stems range from glaucous (pale yellow-green) to purple.
