"Allium monticola" is an uncommon species of wild onion known by the common name San Bernardino Mountains onion. It is endemic to southern California, where it is found only in the Transverse Ranges near Los Angeles and the northernmost section of the Peninsular Ranges. It generally grows in rocky areas. This onion grows from a bulb one or two centimeters long which often has daughter bulbs attached to it on stalks. The waxy stem reaches a maximum height near 25 centimeters and the single leaf may be a bit longer. The inflorescence contains up to about 25 flowers, each with tepals nearly two centimeters long and white or light pink with darker pink tips.
