'''''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.
