That's my favourite Trillium, Alex  and that's saying something since they are all super plants.  You are a lucky chap.

Trillium time is starting in the US Pacific Northwest.  Trillium rivale is always to first to flower for me.  Here is a nice pot of white ones.  Pinks and 'Purple Heart' are also in bloom in pots.  Plants in the garden are about a week behind.

I have about 7 Trillium rivale 2 yr old seedlings from Archibald seed in a 7cm pot. Should I keep them in this pot for a bit longer or divide them up? If the latter when is the best time to do this?
Thank you for any advice

I would pot them on, en masse, when the weather improves a bit . No need to disturb them yet - giving them a larger pot to expand into will suffice.

The red foliage is Hepatica actiloba, growing next to the trillium and the walking fern on moss covered dolomites.
it was a nice day but we are back into winter today. that location was snowed on Sunday

I agree Maggie trilliums are super plants!

I have a batch of about fifty 2 year old seedlings from a trillium chloropetalum that has an unusual coloured mauve/purple flower x with a trillium albidum. Hoping for some beautiful variations in 5 years time as both parent plants set seed.

Will make the same cross again this year.

Such fun,     ;D
