Elegant Brodiaea
Brodiaea elegans
Plant Description
Elegant brodiaea has delicate violet flowers that sit atop a leafless stalk in the dry days of summer. It adds a dash of bright color when other flowers are fading. Also known as harvest brodiaea, it grows to 20 inches and will spread to form violet drifts if allowed to go to seed. It’s very drought tolerant and a great plant for a rock garden.
