Trillium undulatum is a perennial herbaceous plant. Flowering occurs from late April to the end of June. The single has three petals with wavy edges and a central red to reddish purple area at the base of the flower.
The natural range of Trillium undulatum extends from Canada (New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Prince Edward Island, Quebec), to much of the United States (Connecticut, Georgia, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia). It is endangered in both Ohio and Michigan.
These seeds are available for a very limited time.
Type: Very hardy perennial
Height: 25 to 45 cm, 10-18"
Location: Part sun or part shade
Hardiness zones: 3-8
Seeds per packet: 5
Sow just under the surface of the soil and water in. First keep them at room temperature for 6 weeks. This helps break the phytohormones which inhibit germination. Then cover them with plastic to retain moisture, and then place in a fridge for 8 weeks. Then bring them to a cool room (approximately 12C, 54F) for 8 weeks for germination. They may be growing at this point, though often they need a second cold period. If they are not growing cover them with plastic and place in a fridge for another 6-8 weeks. Be sure they stay moist. After the second cold stratification period they are then brought back to a cool (12-15C, 54-59F) room for them to germinate. This double cold period is not always needed, but sometimes necessary, and is very normal for these seeds. Germination is in 30-90 days after the second warming period.
The leaves contain calcium oxalate crystals and crystal raphide, and should not be consumed by humans.
