Description
Three white petals, linear leaves roll inward and wilt early.  The website "www.utahwildflowers.com" says that before flowering you can differentiate  the Sego Lily from Death Camas by the Sego Lily's leaves forming a U-shaped trough while the Death Camas has a definite V-shaped trough.
