Spring Thing

What's Next?

Following the ramps, the deciduous forest floor presents Trilliums.

They are truly a sign of spring. Trilliums are ingrained in our culture. They grace U.S. postage stamps, are the state flower in many states and a Canadian Province, and are used as emblems on everything from restaurants to resorts. Trilliums, as the name implies have everything in 3s - three leaves, and three petals.
