A familiar plant from home..



A few weeks ago I planted some familiar plants in the peat garden: trilliums! Though I have to admit, this was the first time I had actually planted these unique Eastern North America natives. Robert, the supervisor for the Rock and Woodland gardens, collected these trilliums from North Carolina in 2011. After we set them out, he asked Kate to take some pictures of “the American planting the American plants.” I felt proud because these were some really cool trilliums in flower!
