FishWildlife & Wildlife Service Service Texas Trillium Arlington, Texas Ecological Services Field Office Texas Trillium Trillium texanum Description Texas trillium belongs to the Liliaceae (lily) family and are rhizomatous herbs with unbranched stems. Trillium plants produce no true leaves or stems aboveground. Texas trillium has solitary white to pale pink flowers on a short stalk, situated above three bracteal leaves. It is the only trillium species in Texas with numerous stomata (specialized cells which open and close to regulate gas and water movement into/out of the plant) on Trillium pusillum var. texanum - (Photo Credit- Jason Singhurst) upper and lower surfaces of its bracts. Longevity is unknown, but one study fern (Woodwardia areolata), and showed that white trillium (Trillium green rein orchid (Platanthera grandiflorum) lives at least 30 years clavellata). based on estimates calculated from the number of constrictions on rhizomes. Conservation Although not listed as endangered or Habitat threatened by the State of Texas, Texas trillium habitat is characterized Texas trillium is ranked as a G2 by a shaded, forest understory. It (imperiled) by NatureServe and is flowers before full leaf-out of over ranked as a Sensitive Species by the story species and before being United States Forest Service. The Distribution overtopped by other herbaceous species is also listed on Texas Parks Texas trillium occurs across thirteen species. Texas trillium is found in the and Wildlife Department’s 2010 List counties in East Texas and into ecotone between riparian baygall and of the Rare Plants of Texas and as a northwestern Louisiana (Caddo sandy pine or oak uplands in the Species of Greatest Conservation Parish).

  • Trillium Week Blooms at Garden in the Woods, Programs Highlight Trillium Collection
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Trillium Week Blooms at Garden in the Woods, Programs Highlight Trillium Collection April 20, 2021 Media Contact: Courtney Allen, Director of Public Programs, [email protected] (Framingham, MA) Native Plant Trust, the nation’s first plant conservation organization and the only one solely focused on New England’s native plants, celebrates the extraordinary during its annual Trillium Week, May 1-8, 2021 at Garden in the Woods in Framingham, MA. Known for their delicate beauty, trilliums are woodland plants highly prized by both gardeners and conservationists, in part because even in the wild it takes four to seven years for the plants to reach flowering age. Native Plant Trust’s Garden in the Woods is home to the most extensive trillium collection in New England. “There are few wildflowers as charismatic as the Trillium. Their unique beauty is associated with honor, purity, and devotion and they are a wonderful element of the spring flora of this country. Trilliums require patience and a steady hand as they are slow growers that build strength and reserves year after year,” notes Uli Lorimer, Director of Horticulture at Native Plant Trust. “Their seeds are dispersed by ants, and new plants seem to creep into the woodland at a glacial pace, yet do not fail to delight when discovered in new places. Our collection of Trillium at Garden in the Woods became a Nationally Accredited Collection in 2013 through the Plant Collection Network of the American Public Gardens Association because of the breadth of taxa represented and the quality of our specimens.

Maine Collection. 49. https://digitalcommons.usm.maine.edu/me_collection/49 This Book is brought to you for free and open access by USM Digital Commons. It has been accepted for inclusion in Maine Collection by an authorized administrator of USM Digital Commons. For more information, please contact [email protected]. BACKGROUND and PURPOSE In an effort to encourage the protection of native Maine plants that are naturally reduced or low in number, the State Planning Office has compiled a list of endangered and threatened plants. Of Maine's approximately 1500 native vascular plant species, 155, or about 10%, are included on the Official List of Maine's Plants that are Endangered or Threatened. Of the species on the list, three are also listed at the federal level. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. has des·ignated the Furbish's Lousewort (Pedicularis furbishiae) and Small Whorled Pogonia (lsotria medeoloides) as Endangered species and the Prairie White-fringed Orchid (Platanthera leucophaea) as Threatened. Listing rare plants of a particular state or region is a process rather than an isolated and finite event.

  • Trillium Grandiflorum)
    Large-flowered Trillium or Common Trillium (Trillium grandiflorum) Large-flowered Trilliums Coming Up in Spring In our childhood, the woods in late May were full of hundreds of large, waxy white flowers that covered the forest floor. Grandma, in her German diary, called these trilliums “wild lilies” and also commented that on May14th and 22nd in 1927 and again on May 22nd in 1940 these flowers were numerous and in full bloom. (Freckman, 1994) gave the earliest blooming dates as April 24th. Large-flowered Trillium Bud Opening Today, with more houses and lawns in the country, and fewer undisturbed woodlots those visions of white are less frequently seen. In addition, the White-tailed Deer population has steadily increased and their appetite for tasty trilliums has served to eliminate many stands of this beautiful plant. This is especially troublesome because once the leaves and flowers are plucked, the plant is likely to die. It can no longer produce food to send down to the roots so that it can come back another year. It still grows quite abundantly on the sloping bank along Billings Avenue in the Town of Medford, Wisconsin. Some sources say that deer do not like to graze on steep banks or inclines so that may be why those plants have escaped. We have a patch of trilliums that has grown larger each year in our lawn. Recently we have had to protect these trilliums from the deer that could wipe out the entire patch in a single night. Sometimes seeds from those plants, possibly transported by ants, have grown into new plants in the front lawn.

  • Of Mice and Men and Trillium: Cascading Effects of Forest Fragmentation
    Ecological Applications, 13(5), 2003, pp. 1193±1203 q 2003 by the Ecological Society of America OF MICE AND MEN AND TRILLIUM: CASCADING EFFECTS OF FOREST FRAGMENTATION DAVID A. TALLMON,1,5 ERIK S. JULES,2 NIKKI J. RADKE,3 AND L. SCOTT MILLS4 1Division of Biological Sciences, University of Montana, Missoula, Montana 59812 USA 2Department of Biological Sciences, Humboldt State University, Arcata, California 95521 USA 3College of Natural Resources, University of Wisconsin, Stevens Point, Wisconsin 54481 USA 4Wildlife Biology Program, School of Forestry, University of Montana, Missoula, Montana 59812 USA Abstract. Cascading ecological effects of anthropogenic habitat fragmentation have been studied primarily in extreme cases (e.g., the isolation of habitat fragments in a novel habitat matrix such as suburban developments, reservoirs, or agricultural ®elds), with less attention to more subtle and widespread cases, such as habitat fragmentation due to timber harvest. Few studies have used rigorous demographic data to demonstrate the direct and indirect effects of habitat fragmentation. We trapped deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus) at ®ve sites over two years in southwest Oregon, USA, and used multi-state capture± recapture models to estimate deer mouse survival and movement in clearcuts, forest-frag- ment edges, forest-fragment interiors, and contiguous forests. We also estimated deer mouse densities in fragmented and unfragmented forests and combined deer mouse demographic studies with trillium (Trillium ovatum) seed predation trials to link deer mouse changes to reduced trillium recruitment previously observed at the same study sites. Mouse survival was highest in clearcuts, intermediate in forest fragments, and lowest in unfragmented (control) forests. Mouse movement among clearcuts, forest edges, and forest interiors was common over short time intervals.
