Like most early-blooming plants, Trilliums give 
better results the following spring when planted in 
autumn in time to make their regular root growth, 
which seems to take place a few weeks after the 
stems have died. They form a very pretty group, 
which comes into bloom early, and whose leaves 
make a good display after the flower has passed. 
Trilliums like a light soil, with a mixture of leaf- 
mold or peat, and for most of them, a little well- 
rotted manure will be beneficial. Although they 
may, as a rule, be grown in the sun, a shade, or 
partial shade, is the most natural place. They look 
best when in good-sized groups. In a good position 
they last almost indefinitely. EacJi Doz
