The Butte County fritillary (Fritillaria eastwoodiae) is a rare and endangered California-native plant with beautifully-mottled, nodding flowers. The alternate name, Eastwood's fritillary, is perhaps more appropriate, given that this wildflower has been found in several other northern California counties and even into southern Oregon.
