Research:
PROPAGATION: T. STAMINEUM CLUMPING OBSERVATIONS (04RP_05).

Study Plan: A study of the clumping habits of trillium stamineum in north Alabama.

Study Findings: (In Process).
- These pictures(1-8) are from a stamineum clump divided from our woodland wildflower garden in September 2004. They were obtained as juveniles from a deer bed a few years earlier. Pictures 9-12 are from a single rhizome clump in Brenda's WF Garden after a number of years (perhaps 5-8 yrs).

Scientific Name: Trillium Stamineum
Common Name(s): Twisted Trillium, Twisted Petalled Toadshade, Flared Toadshade.
Location: SE USA
Description: Stamineum only produce a few offsets and clumps in their native environment in North Alabama but more than any other species except T. Pusillum. They produce many more natural offsets in our garden environment. The picture is a random one from my garden test site that was lifted after 3 years.

Description: Stamineum only produce a few offsets and clumps in their native environment in North Alabama but more than any other species except T. Pusillum. They produce many more natural offsets in our garden environment. This Picture is from a single clump growing next to a large pine tree in Brenda's WF Garden for a number of years. Quite an impressive return from a single rhizome.

Below are Trillium stamineum from my test garden that were lifted after 2-3 years in 2003. The last pictures is the trillium stamineum clump/cluster test area planted in 2003.

The Pictures below are of a clump from a stamineum I planted next to a pine tree some years ago.It contained 34 small rhizomes and 4 large rhizomes. Most all rhizomes were connected together and had to be seperated.
