I saw this unusual plant today, I think it's a trillium. The flower starts in the usual trillium position on top of the leaf then extends its stalk to
produce the flower under the leaf. I was lucky to spot it.

Unusual and lovely, I've tried trilliums a few times without success.

I'm not familiar with Trilliums. Was this in the park you visited?

Yes it was.
I bought three trilliums about 6 years ago, two have disappeared, the other still has only two leaves. |
