  • I thought this was worth taking the photograph. Western trilliums are a delight to every hiker in the forests of the Pacific Northwest. They bloom early in the spring, they stand out in sharp white contrast to the dark and evergreen enormity of the deep woods, and after fading to pink or purple before eventually withering up, they are often forgotten. Pictured here is the pollinated seedpod of the trillium, which is done by solely by ants.

    Western Trillium
  • A springtime favorite, this trio of western trilliums (Trillium ovatum) was found growing next to Lewis Creek in Bellevue, Washington - just south of Cougar Mountain. Like many wildflowers and forbs of moist, damp forests in the Pacific Northwest, these trilliums depend on ants for pollination.
    Trio of Trilliums!
  • First pair of western trilliums of the year! These were found in Enumclaw, Washington at the foot of the Cascade Mountains growing in an old coniferous forest.

  • A close-up of the western trillium showing the detailed fragility of this beautiful moisture-loving forest wildflower, photographed growing within 100 yards of the Puget Sound on a steep slope in Washington State.
    Western Trillium (Trillium ovatum)
  • A perfect example of a pair of western trilliums growing in the damp humus of a forest in Washington State on the side of a steep ravine. The smaller one will most likely go into flower as the current one is fading.
