What's been sold as 'kurabayashii' very often turns out to be 'chloropetalum var. giganteum'. I bought my 'kurabayashii ' plants from a well known nursery in the UK and they turned to be 'chloropetalum var. giganteum' .  Someone posted a comment on this forum how you can see whether you have  kurabayashii or chloropetalum var. giganteum.

Mmmm. If it stops raining I'll check it out. It is about a week earlier than it was last year.

Hi
My Trillium chloropetalum giganteum is flowering much earlier than in previous years. Picture taken this afternoon. Been a mild winter in Stirling, but rain, rain and more rain. Today was the first dry day for ages.

We've had near record rainfall this winter into spring and it shows no sign of stopping any time soon.  It is hard to find a dry moment to take a picture.

So nice Trillium clumps, I especially like the leaves of kurabayashii and cuneatum, and all have so many flowers. :)

Claire, your Trilliums are really beautiful. I find that Trillium cuneatum really has a beautiful foliage variegated.
