A genus closely related to Brodiaea and Dichelostemma. Named after James Brodie (1744-1824) a Scottish horticulturalist. The genus consists of more than 30 species and is mostly offered as Brodiaea. Triteleia tolerates full sun, but also light shade. The soil type may vary from sand to loam, but should be well-drained and rich in nutrients. Perfect plants for naturalising. Beautiful, long-lasting cut flowers in which we can expect nice colours in years to come.
