Description
Trillium sessile has red elongated tulip-shaped blooms (with petals longer than T. recurvatum) with mottled green foliage. If you have a woodland garden you should have trilliums! Native to the Eastern US. 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.
