Description
Trillium ludovicianum is a perennial herbaceous plant up to 12 inches (30 cm) tall. Flowers are dark red, purple, or dark green, sometimes with irregular markings. The plant grows in moist woods and floodplains. Within ten days after the flower opens, the height of the plant (on average) will increase by 50%. In that same period, the length of the petals will almost double.
