  1. Really weird because this looks just like Catesby's Trillium (Trillium catesbaei)--which is nowhere near your range....

    1. Bashful Wakerobin (Trillium catesbaei) This bashful beauty was growing at a forest edge along our driveway. I barely caught the white of the petals as this flower nods below the foliage. Bashful wakerobin,Geotagged,Spring,Trillium catesbaei,United States

      1. That is so weird. I don't think I have ever seen this species before. It looks like it. I wonder if it is. Posted one year ago
        1. Pl@ntnet results:
          Trilium ovatum (77% confidence)
          Trilium catesbaei (13% confidence)

          Interpret as you see fit, just sharing results.

          1. The range would be even more off for T. ovatum. It grows on West Coast. Posted one year ago
            1. Ok, that shows the limitations of purely visual matching using AI. In no way it shows my limitations, obviously. Posted one year ago
              1. @Ferdy, correct - you have no limitations. Posted one year ago
                1. Bahaha! :D Posted one year ago
                2. Especially not in detecting sarcasm ;) Posted one year ago
                  1. What is sarcasm? Posted one year ago
                      1. Interesting, but that is incorrect. The Sarcasm World Championship was not in Peru in 1998. It was in Amsterdam. You should know this! Look it up ;). Posted one year ago
                        1. No femsplaining.

                          *I'm commenting on your comment by commenting IN your comment just so you don't get the last word ;). How's that for femsplaining?

              2. Ferdy, is your power level over 9000?
                Posted one year ago
                1. Haha! Posted one year ago
                2. It's more like level 90. Same as the amount of minutes it takes me to get out of bed. Posted one year ago
                  1. I feel that, Ferdy. Waking up is rough! Posted one year ago
          2. Thanks Ferdy, I think it's Trilium catesbaei...Just REALLY out of range. Posted one year ago
            1. I think so too! I'm SOOOOOOOO VERY excited! Posted one year ago
            2. Also, to give you an idea of how thrilled I am, I forgot to even favorite this or add it to my "Pretty in Pink.." list :P Posted one year ago
              1. I'm going to need a nap after all this excitement. Posted one year ago
                1. I went to bed early LOL!
                  I think you can safely call these T. catesbaei. :3 Looks like there are a few observations up your way but they are mostly cultivated..so this MAY be something truly special. You made my week for sure!

                  1. Yay, thanks! I'm glad it brought you some cheer <3. Posted one year ago
  2. Nice play on the three green sepals against the three pink petals. All offset with the yellow anthers. Posted one year ago
    1. Thanks, they are beautiful flowers. Posted one year ago
