Description
The native and European species with (usually) four leaves in a whorl and a curious spidery green and yellow flower in May.
Growing conditions are exactly as for Trillium and the creeping rhizomes will increase gently when happy. It is easily pleased though it needs patience and lack of disturbance to do well. Allow it time to settle. Forget the books which insist on limey soils for this species. Although it will grow in limey soils and often occurs on these in the wild, it does not have to have lime, rather it needs the conditions found in the woodlands that occur over limestone.
