Red Trillium/Sunday Best

Red trillium

This is a great time to walk the trails  in the Provincial Forests in and around East Gwillimbury.  Red trillium are in full bloom as are many other wildflowers.

I am linking to Your Sunday Best at A Rural Journal

A pretty flower, beautifully described by your photo. So rainy here this weekend that the camera's remained grounded!

Nice picture and nice colour.

We have white trillium, but I haven't seen any so far. I think they are especially beautiful. The red would be a wonderful sight, I am sure!

RedPat said...

I didn't realize that they were out already! Lovely.

This would put a trill into your song on any given day. Beautiful!

We often see white trillium in the mountains, but red trillium are extremely rate around here. Your photo is superb -- you've captured the color and texture perfectly.

Stephanie said...

Ooh a red one. It is quite pretty in this color.

Darla said...

Great shot. I just like to say "trillium", doesn't it sound like a happy word?

Lovely flower. We don't have it here in Australia. so it's great to be able to enjoy it through your photography!

Rose said...

I have this growing this in my yard! And this picture makes me feel like I could reach out and touch it.

I don't think I have ever seen this flower- how pretty.

Zosia said...

I didn't know there are red trilliums. White trillium is a symbol of Ontario and it would be blooming right now in a little wood by the place where I lived in Oakville.
