White Trillium, American Wake-Robin, American Wood Lily, Large White Wood Lily , White Wake Robin, Wake-Robin, Snow Trillium
Quite showy, Trillium grandiflorum (White Trillium) is a vigorous clump-forming perennial with erect stems clad with a whorl of 3 broadly ovate leaves. From the center of the leaf whorl emerges a solitary, white flower in spring, up to 4 in. across (10 cm), adorned with 3 recurved petals. Long-lasting, the large blossoms turn pale pink as they age and give way to berry-like capsules. Easy to grow, this graceful Trillium is a lovely choice for wildflower gardens or woodland gardens. Perhaps the most popular of all the species.
