PAINTED TRILLIUM, WAKE ROBIN
SKU: 59-005
Description
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 Canada, to much of the united states.
Canada: New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Prince Edward Island, Quebec
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.
As of October 2019, Trillium undulatum is globally secure. It is vulnerable (or worse) in at least seven U.S. states. In particular, it is endangered in both Ohio and Michigan.
The leaves should not be consumed by humans.
These seeds are available for a very limited time (see below).
Type: Very hardy perennial
Height: 25 to 45 cm, 10-18"
Location: Part sun or part shade
Hardiness zones: 3-8
Seeds per pack: 5
Availability: These seeds are available for a very limited time. If these seeds are showing out of stock, we strongly recommend joining our wait list, as these seeds have a very shorty viability window (so we don't offer them for very long) and this helps ensure you get the freshest seeds possible! If they are available, they will only be available for a short time.
Germination: Start these seeds right away for best germination rates. These seeds need a series of cold periods to break dormancy. Keep the seeds moist for this entire time. Your planting container should have holes in the bottom for excess water to drain. Sow the seeds just under the surface of a sterile seed-start mix, and water in. First keep them at room temperature for 3-4 weeks. This helps break the phytohormones which inhibit germination. Then cover them with plastic to retain moisture, and then place in a fridge for 6-8 weeks. Then bring them to a cool room (+5 to +12°C, 41 to 54°F) for 4 weeks. They will not likely be growing yet. If they are not growing they will need a second cold period, cover them with plastic and place in a fridge for another 6 weeks. Be sure they stay moist. After the cold-moist stratification period they are then brought back to a cool (15C, 59F) room for them to germinate. Germination is in 30-90 days after the warming period, sometimes longer.
