RE: Trilliums ?

Chris, maybe that was my problem?  My soil is neutral to alkaline.
Hmmm....may have to try trillium again, looking for the kind you are
growing.

Thanks!

Hi Jim, 

   I've got a quite a few, but most of mine are of the alkaline soil
   variety.  I've killed many of the ones that prefer acidic soil.

   I have T. erectum, T. grandiflorum, T. luteum, T. stamineum, 
   T. vaseyi, T. flexipes, T. ovatum, and T. recurvatum.  

   That said, I was just admiring the 54 pots of trilliums I was
   putting outside; the T. grandiflorum are amazing, reaching 1'
   high with multiple stalks and blooms.  I want to take a picture
   tomorrow just because it's so cool.  :)

Chris
