Lanceleaf Wakerobin

Here’s a little throwback to a spring trip that resulted in an unexpected encounter with lanceleaf wakerobin (Trillium lancifolium). Up to this point, I was totally unaware of this species. Lanceleaf wakerobin occurs in only a few scattered locations in southeastern North America and is considered vulnerable to extinction due to habitat loss, unsustainable logging, and feral hogs.
