Name change!

While I much prefer the name you have chosen, it is not called Triteleia grandiflora var grandiflora. To me it is still Douglas' Brodiaea

Re: Name change!

Yes, the name has been changed along with a couple 100 others. I learned with Hitchcock and still follow that in casual conversation. It allows better communication in general. If I were doing a formal report or something, then I use the most current recognized names.
