Seldom available central Oregon to northern California sessile species that is just dynamite. Big white flowers with petals standing straight up from the lightly mottled leaves and producing to varying degrees, a sweet lemon scent. Tubers at or near flowering size.
Sweet Mother of God. It's hard enough to get either one of the species let alone crosses. Flowering size plants we grew from seed collected from a couple of our favorites from the breeding work of Charles Price who deliberately meddled in the private affairs of the West Coast Trilliums in hopes of getting fragrance. These will vary somewhat in color and to the degree they resemble their parents - some approaching chloropetalum, some looking much like kurabayashii - but all well within the parameters of very good.
While only given its proper species status relatively recently we can all be thankful that the original collector circa 1935 got his credit in the end lending us his zippy name, Oosting, and giving us this excellent and avant-garde Trillium found only in a few South Carolina locations. It’s not just the rarity that makes this haute-couture on the Trillium red carpet, though it has that well-covered too. Eschewing the standard Trillium garb of plain reds and whites this bold beauty pairs a bright acid green with a darkly alluring maroon base while the well-dappled leaves prove it knows how to accessorize.
Bestowed the unflattering common name of "Least Trillium", its charming appearance tends to disagree, though to be fair to old folkways it is indeed one of the smallest trillium species. One of the stalked trilliums featuring a trio of slightly undulate white petals sometimes tinged with pink subtended by semi-rolled sepals. Yet another case of size matters not.
