Tofieldia

Tofieldia is a small genus of flowering plants described as a genus in 1778. It is widespread across much of Europe, Asia, and North America.
"Tofieldia" was once placed in the lily family, but now generally included in the newer family Tofieldiaceae. The genus sometimes includes species of genus "Triantha". "Tofieldia" are rhizomatous perennial herbs with spikes or racemes of lily-like flowers.
The name "Tofieldia" commemorates the British botanist Thomas Tofield.
