The White Empress in Bloom
Great White Trillium (Trillium grandiflorum)
She appears in the woods a little later than her more vibrantly coloured red cousins, but she is just as grand with her three lush white petals, golden heart and three supporting bracts. Her petals are velvety, a little wider than those of the red trillium and they curve delightfully, as if she is trying to compensate for her lack of scarlet pigmentation with a paler but more shapely grandeur.
No compensation needed. She is absolutely gorgeous in her own right, another of the northern wildflowers that Georgia O'Keefe would have loved to paint.
