Treasured Trillium Collection

Our Treasured Trillium Collection includes three different varieties of native trillium, also known as Wake Robins, all ready to spread and multiply in your shady setting. Found throughout the woodlands of North America, three-petaled trillium flowers are lauded as one of the earliest and most welcome signs of spring. To mimic their perfect conditions outside of the woods, give them plenty of rich soil amended with compost or rotted leaves, and keep them moist throughout the growing season.

Remember that they emerge and bloom before the trees have completely filled out with leaves, but prefer full shade after their blooms have officially passed for the season; this is especially important in southern regions where they need more shade and protection from exposure to afternoon sun during the hotter months of the summer. Trillium are often found in wetlands and will need extra water throughout their first few seasons, and at planting time. Like many woodland perennials, trillium can be slow to establish and may take their time naturalizing an area, but they are worth the wait, and are low-maintenance plants once established.
