Fremont's Star Lily, a perennial herb, is known for its six symmetrically arranged petals on its springtime flowers that give this wildflower its designation as a 'star.' Fremont's Star Lily is also known by other names such as star zigadene, the common star lily, or the death camas. Death camas? While this flower is beautiful, it can also be deadly. The Star Lily is a highly toxic plant that can cause severe even fatal symptoms if any part of the plant is eaten. Enjoy the beauty of the Star Lily but leave it alone!
