  • Also known as the spotted wakerobin, the spotted trillium is found in very scattered pockets in undistrubed rich mesic forests in parts of Georgia, Southeastern South Carolina, Alabama, and extreme North Florida.
    Spotted Trillium
  • Possibly a hybrid, this confederate trillium (or wakerobin) has the distinct silvery-green stripes through the center of the leaves, but it is not as pronounces as the typical pattern. This was photographed in a forest where the confederate and spotted trilliums are found growing together.
    Confederate Trillium (Trillium reliquum)
  • A beautiful specimen of the rare and very local Chattahoochee River wakerobin not yet in flower popping up through the forest floor near the river that bears it's name. This was photographed in North Florida, very near tri-state border with Alabama and Georgia and was photographed around Thanksgiving.
    Chattahoochee River Trillium (Trilli..ens)
  • The very rare and endangered Confederate trillium is one of the most beautiful and striking members of the trillium genus to be found in the American Southwest. These were photographed as part of a very healthy and robust colony, that were recently discovered growing among the more common species of spotted wakerobins in Tallahassee, Florida.
    Confederate Trillium (Trillium reliquum)
  • The very rare and endangered confererate trillium is one of the most beautiful and striking members of the trillium genus to be found in the American Southwest. These were photographed in as part of a very healthy and robust colony, that were recently discovered growing among the more common species of spotted wakerobins in Tallahassee, Florida.
    Confederate Trillium (Trillium reliquum)
  • Although not in flower, a unique view nonetheless - a pair of the rare and endangered confederate trillium (left) and the spotted trillium (right) growing next to each other in a forest in Tallahassee, Florida. The confederate trillium on the left is showing its distinct silvery-light green markings in the center of the leaves, while the spotted trillium to the right shows a more uniform mottling on the leaves. There is a good chance that there might be some hybridization as there seems to be a similar pattern while lacking the unique and telltale coloring.
    Trilliums (Confederate and Spotted)
  • Detail photograph of the leaves of a flowering spotted triliium, seen here growing in a hardwood forest in southern Georgia. Slightly different from its endangered cousin - the confederate trillium - this one grows fairly high about the fallen leaves of the early spring forest floor.
    Spotted Trillium (Trillium maculatum)
  • A group of spotted trilliums  rise above a carpet of rare trout lilies in southern Georgia. Slightly different from its endangered cousin - the confederate trillium - this one grows fairly high about the fallen leaves of the early spring forest floor.
    Spotted Trillium (Trillium maculatum)
  • Sometimes the typically dark red/maroon flower of the confederate trillium is yellow in some specimens. This rare version of a very rare endangered plant was reason enough for me to get a shot of an otherwise imperfect specimen.
    Confederate Trillium (Trillium reliquum)
  • 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.
    Western Trillium (Trillium ovatum)
  • 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.
    Western Trilliums
  • 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 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.
