Trillium grandiflorum (Michaux) Salisbury in Virginia
| You might find when you spend time with this taxon, that it might be a kind of botanical version of Dorian Gray, except the picture remains beautiful, but always different. The flower starts out white, but then starts to change with age, and the color patterns that result over a season are fascinating to observe. |
