White Trillium forms a single stem topped with three broad, green leaves and one large, three-petalled white flower. The flowers appear in spring, often fading to pink or rose as they age. After flowering, a green berry develops and eventually matures. It is an excellent choice for a native woodland or shade garden. It is very slow to establish, particularly when grown from seed.
Once established, it can form beautiful colonies over many years. Keep soil evenly moist, especially while plants are establishing. A layer of naturally decomposing leaves is beneficial and helps replicate woodland conditions.

White Trilium should not be disturbed; their underground rhizomes can be damaged easily. Do not cut the foliage while it is still green. The leaves need to remain attached after flowering so the plant can replenish its underground food reserves. The plant naturally goes dormant in early to mid-summer. This is normal. Mark its location so that it isn't accidentally dug up after the foliage disappears. Plants grown from seed can take several years to reach flowering size, so patience is essential.
