I have several forms of Trillium apetalon in my garden and this year I have studied them closer. There is a great variation in color of the sepals, which I know is normal and in a few the ovary is dark, perhaps a varieties. I have a Trillium coming from Aomori, an area in the northern main island Honsu, Japan. Last year it has 3 red petals, this year it has none, but the ovary is dark and big and the stamens are also different from my Trillium apetalon. The man I got it from do not know what kind of species it is, he has had it in his garden for several years. Right now flourish my Kinugasa japonica.

What kind of soil have you given your Kinugasa?

[kalle-k.dk]

Same soil that I use for some of my Trillium, peat, lot of humus (old leaves), fine gravel. They are planted in light shade.

Here is my Trillium luteum blooming for the first time.  Thanks, Göte!  It's just gorgeous and seems to be right at home.

Some more Trillium:

1-3  Trillium catesbaei
4-5  T. vaseyi - hard to get photos of this lovely, petals wrap around backwards over the sepals forming a triangular shaped flower.  Rugose flower texture, one of my favorites.
6     T. lancifolium at full anthesis, the flowers age a bright red and twist. T. decumbens & reliquum in background.
7     T. recurvatum, and a self-sown hybrid, first flowering of T. recurvatum x stamineum in lower center of photo.
