Trillium erectum |
Red trillium is found in rich, moist woods from Manitoba, Canada east to Nova Scotia, south to Georgia and Alabama, and north to Illinois and Michigan.?

Red trillium blooms from April-June, and can reach 20-40 cm in height. |

squirrel corn |
Dicentra canadensis |
An inhabitant of the eastern hardwood forest, Dicentra canadensis seems to prefer rich soils with rocky outcrops. The deep ravines and river valleys of Minnesota's southeast counties represent the extreme northwest extent of Squirrel Corn's North American range. It is by no means common in that area. The DNR says it is now most at risk from invasive species, earthworms in particular, and was listed as a Special Concern species in 1984.? |
