Oh pitiful me! (Pityopus californica)
Even rarer plants:
Because I did not know what a Pine Foot or Pityopus californica was... it has surely died.
Now, I fear that the rare plant police will come and take me away!
This strange looking plant was growing near a Glad that I was babying in my plant nursery near an old stump. In fact, I thought that it was some strange fungus. When I first noticed it, I said, "Slimey thing. Ew!" It was so much uglier than this picture. Its roots were rather shallow, pointy and short. It's base flat and white. It was so near the Glad that it was dug up along with the bulb. I am certain that it is now dead. Well, live and learn. I should take better care to identify these types of things in the future.
