White trillium, Trillium grandiflorum
White trillium is a gorgeous spring ephemeral that lives in damp, shaded forest. It blooms in early spring, before the trees have leafed-out, then quickly dies back and remains underground until the following spring. It is the official flower of the Province of Ontario.
