Brodiaea californica

Has anyone tried growing Brodiaea californica? I've just found it in a new catalogue and the species name sounds as if it would be happy here.

Hi Fleur,
Brodiaea californica grows well under our conditions in Central Victoria, as do a lot of the other "themids" like Triteleia laxa, Dichelostemma congestum, Bloomeria crocea and others,
cheers

Hi Fleur,
