Trillium luteum, or yellow wakerobin is a spring wildflower with native populations in the Great Smokey Mountains and surrounding areas. It usually occurs in the shade of mature deciduous trees on calcium-rich soils. It is often planted outside its native range, and is highly regarded for its yellow, lemon-scented flower. The mottled leaves are also handsome.
