T'iil

Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

T'iil was a fragrant Alderaanian flowering plant. The flower itself was shaped like a trumpet, and bloomed with a vibrant yellow color. On Naboo, shaaks and other large herd animals helped pollinate the t'iil.

The extract from the white core of the plant's roots was considered a treatment for sore throats. The leaves of the plant were used to create a soothing tea. The single drop of nectar found in the t'iil was harvested and used to distill l'lahsh.

The T'iil seed cake was eaten in the Aldera Royal Palace during the Imperial Period, and the T'iil Blossom Homes building on the planet Delaya housed Alderaanian refugees after the Galactic Empire destroyed Alderaan.
