'''''Triteleia''''' is a genus of [[monocotyledon]] [[flowering plant]]s also known as '''tripletlilies''' . Species are native to western [[North America]], from [[British Columbia]] southwards, with the ranges of some species reaching to [[Guatemala]]. However they are most common in [[California]]. They are [[perennial plant]]s growing from a fibrous [[corm]], roughly spherical in shape. They get their name from the fact that all parts of their flowers come in threes. {{Inc| Triteleia: Brodiaea. The following species, listed under Triteleia, is to be combined with the treatment of Brodiaea in Vol. I, p. 576. B. uniflora, Baker (Triteleia uniflora, Lindl. Milla uniflora, Graham). Spring Star-Flower. Lvs. narrow-linear, 1 ft. or less long: scapes 8 in. or less tall, bearing a bract-like spathe toward the top: fl. 1 (rarely 2), 1 – 1 1/2 in. across, pale lilac or pale blue, with pointed segms. violet-streaked through the center. Argentina. Hardy in most of the northern states, although it does not persist long. Grown chiefly as a pot-plant for spring bloom. Var. caerulea, Hort., has porcelain-blue fls. There are other horticultural forms. T. violacea, with "delicate violet fls.," is probably a form of this species rather than the T. violacea, Kunth, a Chilean species. {{SCH}} }} ==Cultivation== {{edit-cult}}<!--- Type cultivation info below this line, then delete this entire line --> ===Propagation=== {{edit-prop}}<!--- Type propagation info below this line, then delete this entire line --> ===Pests and diseases=== {{edit-pests}}<!--- Type pest/disease info below this line, then delete this entire line --> ==Species== *''Triteleia bridgesii'' – [[Bridges' Brodiaea]] *''[[Triteleia clementina]]'' – [[San Clemente Island Tripletlily]] *''[[Triteleia crocea]]'' – [[Yellow Tripletlily]] **''Triteleia crocea'' var.
