Wonderful to see our local California native Trilliums in a garden setting on the other side of the globe. They look great! Hopefully, I will be posting photos from their native habitat in about a month - some snow on the ground where they live, especially T. albidum.

Thank you Robert I look forward to seeing them in the wild

Hi Ian you have a lovely garden.  Your Trilliums are looking fantastic  :)   I'll have to pinch the idea of putting my T. albidums in front of my T. chloropetalum var. giganteum it really makes them stand out, and hopefully you may get some interesting seedlings?  Here is a photo of mine with with seedlings which I have waited years for!

Thank you Jane. My garden does seem to suit some of the trilliums and I get a lot of seedlings from some. You can see seedlings under the plants shown below. These are  a couple of rivale plants the first one from seed many moons ago and though quite plain makes a nice show and a special one I have as Winifred Murray

Winifred Murray is a stunner Ian.  How long have has she been growing in the garden and can I ask where you purchased her from?  I think I could find a spot in the garden for a beauty like that :-)

Lovely lovely Trillium pictures, and I love to see them in the garden settings. It gives ideas and inspiration while I wait for my seedlings to grow.
Thank you. :)

Is anyone else finding exceptionally good flowering on trilliums this year? Mine are flowering better than ever before. Must have enjoyed last year's weather, I suppose.

Hello Jonny
I would like to know how long you have your Trillium in pots before you plant them in the box? Picture1

Well Anne, the T.sessile I got from you last autumn has come up with 3 shoots and all have flower buds. Very pleased with a great plant.

My Trillium pusillum that grow in a trough have so far failed to appear this year.

My T. ovatum hibbersonii are back again which is good to see because a few years back they failed to come up. I'd like to move them where I can enjoy them and they don't get crowded out. When can I do this or should I just leave them where they are?

But don't they look good alongside that dark celandine!
