|discussion=<p><i>Dichelostemma multiflorum</i> is similar to <i>D. capitatum</i> and <i>D. congestum</i>. <i>Dichelostemma capitatum</i> is distinguished by its six fertile stamens, and <i>D. congestum</i> by perianth appendages that are deeply bifid and lean away from the inner anthers; racemose inflorescences; and a weakly constricted perianth tube.</p>
