Trillium cuneatum is one of the largest and most vigorous trilliums. Each plant features three mottled leaves in a terminal whorl subtending a solitary, maroon to dark red flower. Trillium are exquisite plants for the shade garden blooming in early to mid spring with their elegant flowers. They are spring ephemerals that may go dormant by summer. Keep in mind that they may go dormant early in the year they are first planted and could sulk a bit in their second year before settling in for beautiful displays for years to come.
