I didn't discover native woodland plants until late last spring (thanks to you guys on gardenweb), at which time i went out to my backyard and discovered jack in the pulpits. I was beyond excited to find a treasure in my own yard.

All season long, I though all 3 leafed things were jacks...

This spring, I've watched everything come up. Well I see a TON of "jack in the pulpits", but after seeing how those come up, Its clear that not only do I have Jacks, my yard is completely overun w/trillium!!!! They look nothing alike when the emerge from the ground.

YAY!!!! I have such a new outlook on my garden-I never pull anything out and I love seeing what grows here naturally.

Maybe now I can return the trillium I bought at Home Depot.
