Vasey's Trillium, Trillium vaseyi

These plants begin shipping March 16th.

Trillium vaseyi, commonly known as Vasey’s trillium or sweet wakerobin, is a showstopping native woodland perennial prized for its large, nodding maroon to deep red flowers. Blooming in mid to late spring, the broad, velvety petals arch gracefully above a whorl of lush green leaves, creating a dramatic focal point in shade gardens and woodland landscapes.

Native to the Appalachian Mountains, this hardy trillium thrives in partial to full shade and moist, well-drained, humus-rich soil. Ideal for native plant gardens, woodland borders, and naturalized plantings, Trillium vaseyi is a long-lived, low-maintenance spring ephemeral that slowly forms impressive clumps when undisturbed. 

Cold hardy in zones 3-9, it is deer-resistant and pollinator-friendly. Perfect for shade gardening enthusiasts, Vasey’s trillium adds bold color and timeless beauty to any woodland garden.
