mission bell
Adobe tower's voice
Mission bell refers to a bell associated with Spanish colonial missions, particularly those along the California coast, which marked daily routines and called people to worship.
The term also names a wildflower native to western North America—*Fritillaria*—whose nodding, bell-shaped blooms supposedly resemble the bells hung in mission towers.
