Trillium (Birthroots)
5 products
Trillium’s elegant three-petaled blooms (April - May) attract early-spring pollinators such as bumblebee queens (Bombus spp.) and hairy-footed flower bees (Anthophora spp.), drawn to their nectar-rich flowers. The plant’s mottled foliage provides shelter for ground-dwelling invertebrates like beetles and spiders, while its fleshy seeds are dispersed by ants. Thriving in dappled woodland shade, Trilliums pair beautifully with native Hyacinthoides non-scripta (bluebells) to create layered pollinator habitats. Though not native to the UK, their early bloom time and shade tolerance make them valuable for woodland gardens, bridging the gap between winter dormancy and spring abundance
