(Trilliaceae)
Trillium taiwanensi BSWJ3411
Description
From one of our collections gathered from a cliff base in the Yushan area of the central mountains, Taiwan in 1996. A site which has since disappeared due to subsidence, as did the original plant from our garden when a thoughtful 'enthusiast' relived us of the entire clump. From 2.5cm thick rhizomes emerge upright stems to 25cm tall bearing broadly ovate leaves in a whirl of 3 on short stalks, below the white 3-part flowers to 5cm across on short stalks April-June. Best cultivated in a cool humus rich soil in part to full shade.
