I can't find a reference for the common name "bead lily" so I plan to remove that name unless a citation is found. Tom Scavo (talk) 13:22, 10 August 2020 (UTC)Reply

Digging a little deeper, I found three citations for the common name "bead lily."[1][2][3] As an aside, the article by Meyer contains a wealth of information about this species. Tom Scavo (talk) 15:33, 18 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
As it turns out, the phrase "bead lily" is used in common names across the genus, so I'm not sure calling it out as a common name of Clintonia uniflora has much value. In any case, I created a disambiguation page for bead lily. Tom Scavo (talk) 13:45, 3 October 2020 (UTC)Reply
