Plant Description: Trillium ovatum, also known as Western Trillium, is a beautiful perennial plant that originates from a rhizome. Its leaves are arranged in a whorl, with a broad, ovate shape and a pointed tip. 

The solitary flowers feature three pure white petals that eventually turn pink and as the flowers open, the three leaves act as a protective hood.

Landscape Use and Ecological Function: Typically, the flower begins as white and later shifts to a pink hue, but in the Smith River Canyon region of northern California and in areas of southern Oregon, the petals take on a rich red color, resembling a barn.

Its growth is slow and it thrives in damp, acidic soil with abundant organic material, making it a great addition to gardenscapes. Be aware that it is highly favored by slugs
