Trillium in my yard

[Ron-NY]

I live on wooded acres and these are my favorite spring flowers on my property. I three have different species in my woods.

Trillium grandiflora, the Large-flowered trillium

Trillium erectum, the purple trillium

Trillium undulatum, the painted trillium

very nice. I have yet to see undulatum in person....

 

[Heather]

I think we may have undulatum blooming at GITW but I am not sure where. It is on the "in bloom" board but not on the trails I've been on lately. Purple Trillium was in bud yesterday when I was out.

Thanks Ron, those are wonderful. I love grandflorum!

I am starting to really appreciate our natives and understand more why people like them.
Crap.

undulatum is not very common around here. I had to search and only found 2 plants blooming on the 10 acres I walked

I have always loved trilium but they hate me. Even our native ones die on me.

...Even our native ones die on me.

silly... you're not suppose to put them on you, you're suppose to plant them!

Isn't trillium some element Captain Kirk needed to process?

 

[SlipperFan]

They are lovely. Thanks for sharing.

Man those are nice! I like Trillium undulatum

Do you have native orchids growing there also?

 

[Eric Muehlbauer]

I love undulatum....but NYC temps are too warm for it. I'll post my grandiflorum pix soon...erectum wasn't worth photographing this year...luteum is opening now..aloways my largest and most vigorous trillium. Take care, Eric
