If he'd posted it a few hours later we could've suspected something like that!

Michael and Darren, you have gorgeous Trillium rivale colors.

Here's Trillium pusillum, started from a single bulb 11 years ago.

As for trilliums spreading in the garden, I suspect ants do the deed.

Trillium luteum and T. hibbersonii, the latter dwarfed by Erythronium revolutum leaves.

A nice pink form of Trillium rivale I got from Kevock a few years ago and a pot of seedlings from it with the first flowers.  The seedling pot is a bit overexposed.   The flower at the front is about the same colour as the parent but the one in the middle is darker so should be interesting when it is fully open.

Nice pink T. rivale, Roma!

I picked up this Trillium chloropetalum as a small (probably second year) seedling at the SRGC Edinburgh show in 2012 - it came with the warning "7 years to flower, young man!" I seems to be a good form, increasing to two stems of flowering size in its first year of flowering and with excellent patterning to the leaf.

Beautiful chloropetalum Matt!
I have sown Trillium kurabayashii yellow in October  2015 and there are already 3 seedlings with one leave!

Thanks Roma. I can't claim any skill in cultivation having bought it at a visit to Ashwood Nursery last month. I just hope it re-visits me next year.
