Trillium recurvatum - 2013

looks fantastic

Very unusual.
Are the centres purple, too, Andrew?

I found a few small shoots in an almost forgotten pot yesterday - it's about thime those particular Trilliums showed themselves, it's only three years since I got them! I can't even remember which ones they are, but I hope they grow to look like yours.

Mouldy - yes, they are

Spritz - this one is always the first in flower for me, some of my others aren't even starting to shoot yet

Thanks Andrew!

I saw these at Wisley a while ago, en masse. They looked amazing! I suspect mine aren't the same, sadly.

How so, Spritz?

Because last year I had flowers on two and they were underneath the leaves, not on top. My own fault for not ordering the right ones!

Australian?
Oh, c'mon, you can't lie down with a dog & not expect fleas! LOL.

Ah - hadn't realised that Trillums were antipodean. That explains it! LOL.

They're not Australian - most of them come from North America. This one comes from central and Eastern USA (see wikipaedia)
