Award winning trillium collection
RHS AGM wake robin collection
The leaves, leaflike sepals and flower petals of these enchanting plants all appear in whorls of three, which gives them a distinctive appearance. Tolerant of some summer drought, they benefit from a light feed in early spring and a deep mulch of leaf mould in autumn. They are hardy, although a late frost may damage new growth.
Ideal for moist woodland gardens or shaded borders, these deciduous, rhizomatous perennials thrive in deep, moist but well-drained, slightly acidic, neutral or slightly alkaline soils.
These plants are quite hard to grow and will take some time to establish large clumps, so they are better suited to the more experienced gardener.

How to care for Award-winning Trillium collection:
Plant rhizomes 5cm deep and 5cm apart in autumn. Once planted they are best left undisturbed so they can build up their numbers. Mulch in the autumn with a generous layer of leaf mould.
