As currently circumscribed, the largest genera are Triteleia, with 15 species, and Brodiaea, with 14.

Rare plants such as the Indian Valley Brodiaea and Adobe lily grow here.

They are described as part of the Brodiaea, Dichelostemma or Triteleia genuses: there is no agreement on their botanical names.

Nine of the 12 genera are known in cultivation, but only species of Brodiaea and Triteleia are commonly grown.
