Trillium reliquum

About

Trillium reliquum, the relict trillium, Confederate wakerobin, or Confederate trillium, is a herbaceous, flowering perennial of the family Melanthiaceae. It is found only in the southeastern region of the United States: southeast Alabama and central and west Georgia, with a disjunct population in east Georgia and southwest South Carolina. As a relict species, there are a few remaining groups but it was once more abundant when conditions were different. Significant habitat loss has occurred through clearing of forests for agricultural and pine farm uses.
