Plant Identification

[HOSS]

Walking through the woods today and saw this plant / seedling. I can't remember seeing one before. I saw several in the immediate area that I was in. Any guesses? Maybe a tree seedling??

Can't identify it but I am almost positive it is not a tree seedling. Too early for tree seedlings to show up.

Hybrid Tennessee marijuana?? I have never seen that up here in PA. Maybe OBAMMA aerial seeded Tennessee with it to stimulate your economy??

Looks like some sort of trilium

I bet it is. It looks very similar and the habitat described was exactly the type I was in. Very pretty in the dead brown forest floor.

We have a few orchids that bloom this time of year. Only one day will they bloom and I always feel blessed when I see them.

If that's a pot plant it sure is a shabby one. Typical of the government. Can't even grow pot right.

We have a verson simular in the thicket that is up right now.
I had never heard it called trillium before.

My memory of all these little things is pretty weak but as I recall, trillium is in the lilly family. So the three leaves makes it a three leafed lilly aka trillium. Lots of different species and common names though. Just a guess.

The only wild lilly we have around here is the Dogtooth Viloet aka Trout Lilly. They're alwasy a highspot to see on spring woods walks. So far the only thing we have blooming in the woods is jonquil at the old log cabin home place, bluetts, henbit and dandilions.
