Trilliums are summer dormant. The whole plant usually disappears by late summer. Best in a woodland situation with rich, moist acidic soil. Can be tricky to establish. Plants do not like being disturbed but division every 5 to 8 years is possible. This is best done in late summer after plants become dormant. When happy these may begin to spread by self seeding.
This variety forms a low mound of large dark-green leaves. The flowers appear in spring, with narrow maroon-red petals. Blooms often nod shyly. One of the quickest to form a good clump.
