Trillium simile Helleborus Iris unguicularis prefers a dryTrillium simile is a little known trillium from the Blue Ridge Mountain region where North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia meet. Trillium simile was named for its resemblance to the nearby Trillium vaseyi.

Our offerings are 7 to 8 year old flowering plants, nursery propagated from seed from Blount County, Tennessee.
