Pseudotrillium is known by the common name brook wakerobin, is endemic to the Siskiyou Mountains of southern Oregon and northern California. The Latin specific epithet rivale means -growing by streams, with reference to a preferred habitat.
Pseudotrillium rivale is a rhizomatous herbaceous perennial with single nodding non-fragrant flowers have pink-blushed white petals up to 3 cm (1.2 in) long by 2 cm (0.8 in) wide. The plant flowers April to June (late March to early May at the higher elevations). After flowering, the entire plant may enlarge and become more robust and turgid with very glossy leaves.
Under its former name, Trillium rivale, this plant has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.
These seeds are available for a very limited time.
Type: Hardy perennial
Height: 20cm, 8"
Hardiness zones: 5-8
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.
