The wide varieties of trillium perennials and their uses in landscaping  When planting trilliums, it's recommended to use organic matter, such as compost or leaf litter, to improve the soil's moisture retention and fertility. Trilliums should be spaced to allow their eventual colony formation, typically around 12 to 18 inches apart. Mulching the plants can help improve moisture and control weed growth. In terms of maintenance, trilliums are generally low-maintenance plants. Regular watering, especially during dry periods, moistens the soil. However, overwatering should be avoided, as excessive moisture can lead to root rot. Applying organic mulch around plants can help retain soil moisture and regulate temperature. Trilliums are typically propagated by division or from seeds. Division involves carefully separating the rhizomes, ensuring that each division has sufficient roots and shoots for successful establishment. Seeds can be sown in a well-prepared seedbed or started indoors, following specific germination requirements for each species.
