−'''''Trillium erectum''''', also known as '''Wake-robin''', '''red trillium''', '''purple trillium''', '''Beth root''' or '''Stinking Benjamin''', is a spring-flowering [[perennial plant]] native to the east and north-eastern areas of [[North America]]. The [[flower]]s are a deep red colour, and the plant takes its name Wake-robin by analogy with the [[European Robin|Robin]], which has a red breast that heralds spring.
−This plant grows to about 40 cm in height with a spread of 30 cm and can tolerate extreme cold in winter, surviving temperatures down to -35 C. The flowers have the smell of rotting meat, as they are pollinated by [[Fly|flies]]. The [[Leaf|leaves]] contain [[calcium oxalate]] crystals and crystal [[Ergastic substance#Crystals|raphide]], and should not be consumed by humans.
