acertrifolium

Look on Logee's website...you might be able to id the plant. They sell alot of tropical plants. Shooting star is Dodecathelon but your plant looks waxy and more tropical than the usual Dodecathelon.

Trillium can divided into two groups: those that have a stem (pedicel) that elevates the flower above the three leaves or those that do not have the stem. The one pictured is a pedicilate trillium. The coloration in the photo is a bit odd but my guess is that it is Trillium erectum or "Wake Robin". Trillium grow from an underground rhizome and removing the above ground leaves will set the plant back. You may not see them next year....but I would sprinkle a small amount of an organic fertilizer (one low in nitrogen) to feed the rhizome and in another year or so you will probably see them again. The plants look pretty big..which means that the rhizome that produced them was pretty big and probably contained alot of reserves. The Indians used the rhizome to treat menstrual cramps. There are about 30 species of Trillium world wide (North America, Japan, Nepal and Eastern China). There is one species that is on the Endangered Plant List. However, many Trillium species are in danger of extinction because of the lost of habitat. Development is the culprit. They just get bulldozed into oblivion when deciduous woods are removed. The state with the most species is Georgia!! The South has the most species but there are Trillium on the West coast as well as up the East coast and into Canada. Even northern Florida has Trillium!! Most Trillium prefer shade since they are a spring ephemeral. They do most of their photosynthesizing before the trees leaf out but there are a few that will tolerate sun (T. pseudotrillium).
