Trillium lancifolium coll. #A1NC-059 (Lance Leaf Trillium)

Light Shade to ShadeZone: 5-9, at least 6" tall Origin: USA

In 1998, we found this fast-multiplying form of Trillium lancifolium in Whitfield, Georgia, growing in a flooded, poison ivy-covered waste area behind a truck stop. We were able to secure a few divisions from the main clump and, finally, have enough flowering-sized seedlings to share. For us, this is one of the earliest, cutest, and also one of the smallest trilliums. The narrow, grey-green foliage is heavily speckled purple and topped by a typical liver-colored flower in late March and April in NC. This has proven to be very easy to grow in a dry woodland and quickly makes a wonderful clump. Pot size: 24 fl. oz (709.77 ml)
