| Trillium luteum |
Trillium luteum, or yellow wakerobin is a spring wildflower with native populations in the Great Smokey Mountains and surrounding areas. It occurs in parts of North Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee and Kentucky, usually in the shade of mature deciduous trees on calcium-rich soils. It is especially abundant around Gatlinburg. It is often planted outside its native range, and is highly regarded for its yellow, lemon-scented flower. The mottled leaves are also handsome. Escapes from cultivation have been noted as far north as Saginaw, Michigan.
