First, let me thank you, Mary, Shawna, Carol, Alandra and Whittler for viewing and commenting. Second, the plant does contain a very poisonous alkaloid that can kill livestock. And pulp from a crushed bulb, mixed with sugar, has been used to poison flies, hence the name. And that's your lesson for the day.

pretty scene and interesting flowers, reminds me of Lupins.

Another beautiful nature shot, Talsi! So does this plant really repel flies? I've never seen that here in California.
