I am assuming these are all unnamed because they are hybrids of yours?

To put it succinctly :  Success !!!

Thank you both .
 Hello Rick, most of the plants shown have been raised from open polinated 'home' seed and as I grow different Trilliums together I presume the result is a mixture of species and hybrids where the parentage is unknown so for that reason I no longer try and label them. It's probably not 'everyones cup of tea' however I grow them for the pleasure they give named or unnamed . ;D

Dave, beautiful colors of rivale! Mine are mostly white.
Your hybrids of Trillium give special colors too.
Here the last two week has been a lot of rain, so nature is recovering a bit from the drought. Here Trilliums are starting to grow again, but it is still waiting till February to see some flowers.

I've seen hundreds of rivale when I have visited California, but I have never seen any as colourful as yours.

Thanks all. Unfortunately the deep pink rivale with the dark leaves has never set seed .

"Trillium Cut-flower Section" - that's terrible!

When I was young, people would pick bunches of wildflowers, especially erythronium, which we called Easter Lillies.  However, no one EVER picked trilliums because doing so would remove the leaves, and there wouldn't be any flowers to admire next year.

Interesting comment Diane.

For as long as I can remember the 'Trillium Cut Flower' Class/es have appeared in various garden club shows here in NZ including the NZAGS.


When I was young, people would pick bunches of wildflowers, especially erythronium, which we called Easter Lillies.  However, no one EVER picked trilliums because doing so would remove the leaves, and there wouldn't be any flowers to admire next year.

Yes that makes sense especially for single stem plants .

Many moons ago cut Trillium blooms were sent yearly to the USA from a NZ grower where he would only crop a portion of the blooms on each plant so he was able to crop them the next season however I can't remember the full details .. I think they are recorded on Trillium L somewhere.

Cheers Dave.

The Easterners currently are in full stride including ...

First flowering of a young seedling of T.discolor in sunlight.
A clump of T.erectum album .
T grandiflorum.
T.luteum.
T.ludovicianum I think .
