I have wanted White Trillium in my woodland garden for years. The bare roots arrived in good condition and I planted them beneath mature trees where the soil stays cool. They have settled in nicely and look completely natural there.

Flowered right away

I decided to pot start my roots, as I needed to make room in the garden for them. So far, I have five out of six plants growing in just a few weeks. The first poked out of the soil a few days after planting! I have mostly white and two painted. Roots were in great shape when I received them, I put them in water immediately and potted them. I plan on transferring them outside this week.

I planted them right away and the foliage looks fine. Since Trillium usually takes time, I’m expecting the best results in the coming season.

The roots were solid and hydrated. So far, the leaves look nice, but I’ll need to wait for the real spring bloom show.

My wife and I love them.

I received the bulbs and planted them. My wife has no idea. I’ll surprise her next spring when they pop up. We have 10 yellow but no white or red Trellium. She’ll love them. I think I received a few extra bulbs and really appreciate them. Thank you very much..,
