Title: Trillium seedpods
Post by: Herman Mylemans on August 16, 2021, 10:33:53 AM

The last years I have taken some pictures of the berries of Trillium. They can help to identify the specie.

Excellent project from you, Herman - and worthy of its own thread- thank you!

Herman, thank you for the pictures with measurements! This confirms that the biggest T.chloropetalum I have is indeed var giganteum as it's seed pods are twice as big as other T.chloropetalum seed pods. :)
