Painted Trillium
Painted Trillium is one of the most stunning perennial wildflowers of the North American eastern woodlands. It can be found in the Canadian provinces down the Appalachian forests and into Georgia.
Painted Trillium's Appearance
Painted Trillium's beautiful single white flower has three wavy-edged petals, each bearing a deep scarlet V. These are framed by three deep green bracts that look like leaves, lending the flower a simple elegance that can fit into any garden’s color scheme or style.
The Requirements Of Painted Trillium
Flowers appear in late spring, last several weeks, and will grow from eight to 18” tall. They can tolerate various garden conditions, including shade or wet. They prefer acidic soil, making them a perfect companion for dogwood trees, magnolias, and other acid-loving garden plants. In some regions, the plant is known as the laurel trillium because it is often found flourishing at the roots of woodland laurel. It will thrive even in the deepest shade, making it a perfect adornment for the shady spots in the garden that other flowers can’t manage.
Planting Painted Trillium
Once the long-lasting beauty of Painted Trillium fades away, late summer to early fall is the best time to plant new ones. While it’s possible to raise the plant from seed, germination can be dauntingly lengthy, making rhizomes or mature plants a better choice for establishing these pretty blooms in your garden. Once set in, they will slowly establish themselves and reproduce, providing you with snow-white blossom drifts each May and June. They’re happiest in moist soil rich in organic matter. Mature plants will produce a lovely scarlet berry in the fall, and then return year after year, often for several decades.

![Bare Root Plants](https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0687/5634/1034/files/Perennials.jpg?v=1692807367)
The plants we ship are bare root and dormant. They have no leaves, blooms, greenery, or foliage. We do not ship plants in a container. Why pay 500% more for a container and heavy soil to be shipped? Also, dormant plants have a much higher survival rate than bloomed-out or leafed-out plants. We ship healthy bare-root plants because we know they will thrive in this state when planted. That's Why we offer a 1 Year Guarantee. We know when Spring time rolls back around, your plants will do exceptionally well.
