Brodiaea orcuttii is a species of flowering plant in the asparagus family, of the subfamily Brodiaeoideae. It is a cluster-lily known commonly as Orcutt's brodiaea. This corm-sprouting species is nearly endemic to San Diego County, with the periphery of its range reaching the southern portion of Riverside County along with some populations sparsely scattered in northwestern Baja California. Brodiaea orcuttii is usually associated with the marginal areas of vernal pools, seeps, meadows, and stream embankments, microhabitats which can generally be found from coastal mesas to interior mountains. The red-purple to blue flowers bloom from April to July. It can be distinguished from all other species of Brodiaea by its lack of staminodes.
