Trillium kurabayashii


This is a rare species of Trillium that is found in the Rogue River-Siskiyou National Forest. We found a new site of this big beautiful flower last week. It was a nice break from looking at all of the invasive plants, being poked by Himalayan blackberry and attacked by poison oak. Pretty neat!

  1. It sure is a beautiful flower - is it unique to the Siskiyou? Did you take this picture?

  2. It is rare here, I don't know its exact range... probably coastal Oregon/N. Cali. I took the picture!
