Geoff and I moved to our present house in December 2013. Starting from scratch it's been a huge challenge but we love it. joanboston357@gmail.com

Rarely see them for sale Sarah as they take about eight years from seed to flower @sieveheadsarah

This is our red one @awomanonabike we have had it many years, we also have a white one that is barely out of the ground yet, flowering much later than this one Jacqueline. I have several others in that are very slow to get going!

It’s fabulous Joan. Is it cuneatum? It looks very similar to one I saw at Edinburgh botanical gardens

Have you seen these Rachel? Do they look like the ones you saw at Beth Chatto’s garden? @rachelbrooks

I’ve always understood it to be trillium sessile or wake robin. We also have trillium ovatum but this is just breaking the surface of the soil. We have several others just getting going, they are very slow growing and can take five years to get bi g enough to flower! @awomanonabike

Thank you for the heads up! I planted my first ever last year and was wondering if it would flower this year 🤔

You’ll be lucky if you get leaves! One of the reasons they are hard to find is they are so slow growing. But worth it Jacqueline @awomanonabike

Oh yes. Lots of buds on this. We brought it from our last garden and is a well established plant. We have two like this. I have several other types that a I’m trying to grow with limited success, they are very slow to establish Richard @richard.spicer.7906

That looks like an interesting plant Joan. I’ve not heard of it before 🤔😊

It’s proper name is trillium Jane and it’s a beautiful woodland plant. Quite rare as it is so slow growing I have several other types, but they can take years to flower! @pelly

Maybe not for me then but I would love to see it in flower Joan 😍😍
