Trillium cernuum


Wonderful woodland plants, nodding Wake Robin, with unique sets of three leaves. An upland plant of well drained woodlands.
Flowers: White, occasionally pink 2.5-5cm flowers 3, petals 3, with yellow anthers. Flowers nod below the leaves.
Leaves: 3.8-7.5cm long, elliptic, in a whorl of 3, usually with 5 main veins.
Height: 25-50cm
Usually flowers in April to May. Plant supplied is like a thick root that when planted out now will provide good colour in the spring although it might take a season or two to get estabilished but then they soon clump up. Ideal beside your Hosta's and Brunnera's. Likes the same conditions dappled shade and slightly damp soil but well drained.
I find if you mix 10% bark with your ericaeous compost they will thrive better the bark helps keep the compost acidic and improves the air circulation around the tuber.


Trilliums only posted out from October to March depending on weather conditions.
