Description
Trilliums carpet the forest floor on the Niagara Escarpment. Trillium grandiflorum is the Provincial Flower of Ontario. There is something special about the trillium that touches people's hearts. Across the continent in Washington State, my botany professor told our class that if we harmed a trillium we would fail his class.

Beautiful, mystical shot, Kathi; evokes kind of a "magical forest" sense. Really gorgeous. Congrats on your sale, well deserved!

There are gorgeous Trillium carpets under the trees in places along the Oregon coast... and I agree with your professor -- do NOT harm a Trillium! :) Your photograph is a testament to the beauty of these wonderful shade-loving flowers! :) Well done, Kathi! F/V

Thank you, Mick! I love your comment and knowing you feel the same about Trilliums. I'd love to go find the places they grow abundantly in Oregon, on a trip back. Is their blooming season as short there as it is in Ontario? Makes timing tricky. I just sort of stumbled upon these. Went back a week later and they were almost gone.

Thank you Shirley! It is a wonderful place. These flowers only bloom for about a week.

LOL, just a card, but any sale is exciting... somebody in Mesa, Arizona has a greeting card with this image on it. :)
