Trillium


Trillium
Originally uploaded by wereldmuis.
I discovered this purple trillium, aka wake-robin or birthroot, in amongst the trout lilies and Dutchman's breeches. It's a larger plant, as you can see with my hand in the photo. But the flower was bent over pointing at the ground so I almost missed seeing it. I had to hold up the flower to take this photo.

Notice the Dutchman's breeches peeking through in the background.
