Monday, May 2, 2011 Red Trillium (Trillium erectum) Yesterday, we were quite pleased to discover one of our favorite wildflowers, Red Trillium (Trillium erectum) growing along the stone wall. It is a quiet, unobtrusive flower, given to shade and easily overlooked. Today, May 2, we have the first blooms.
