Trillium 2021

[Véronique Macrelle]

Hybrids of Trillium sulcatum and flexipes

Is a hybrid easier, faster to grow, and more lush than species?

[Claire Cockcroft]

The hybrid grows about the same as either species.  In my garden, all three types -- species and hybrids -- make huge clumps if they're not crowded.

[Herman Mylemans]

Trillium erectum has had some rain!

Following seedling was not far away, probably a crossing with flexipes that stands two meters away: Trillium erectum x flexipes

[Herman Mylemans]

Trillium stamineum

Trillium sulcatum, I think. It was bought under the name Trillium grandiflorum beige, that was certainly wrong.

Lovely T. sulcatum there Herman.

Here Trillium chloropetalum v. giganteum which is so much like T. kurabayashi. Is there a definitive way to distinguish them?



T. camtschatcense


T. albidum ex Don Armstrong, said to be larger flowered......

John, Trillium chloropetalum var. giganteum flower and leaves are much bigger. Look also at the ovary. The anthers are longer


Trillium kurabayashii

John and Herman very nice trilliums. Trillium is not that easy to grow here. Two years ago bought a Trillium Kamtschaticum  from a nursery. Planted closer to the foundation of the house.This years it started with two buds but the minus weather made one bud to distort. Here is the other bud which became a nice flower.

Kris, here T. camtschatcense is also slow growing.

John, here some picture of today with the meter to show the size.

Trillium chloropetalum var. giganteum

[Leena]

This Trillium chloropetalum was sown from seed ex seeds in 2014 and is now flowering.
Stems are quite short but the flowers are big compared to the plant size. Very nice, thank you who ever donated the seeds in 2014.

Lovely colour of trillium, Leena, and so satisfying after such a long wait!

Trillium grandiflorum 'Flore Plenum'

[Herman Mylemans]

Trillium luteum

Trillium grandiflorum 'Snow Bunting'

[Gabriela]

Herman: seems that your garden is filled with the most wonderful Trillium clumps!

Here Trillium grandiflorum is at peak flowering, we are back on track now with almost summer like temp., so the flowers will start to fade fast.

Herman the trilliums in your garden look amazing.
