Discussion

Of conservation concern.

Chlorogalum grandiflorum is considered by the California Native Plant Society to be endangered in a portion of its range. It is often confused with C. pomeridianum var. minus because of bulb characters, but it can be distinguished by its short, stout pedicels and larger flowers.
