This beautiful member of the lily family was growing on a hillside im Prompton State Park. It was associated mostly with maples, ferns, ramps, and some white pine.
They were in scattered groups in ravines and marshier parts of the hillside. I imagine this is due to the water loving qualities of lily plants.
Never seen this one before, but it added an amazing blood red color to the vibrant green spring landscape.

Trillium erectum, also known as Wake-robin, red trillium, purple trillium, Beth root or Stinking Benjamin, is a spring-flowering perennial plant native to the east and north-eastern areas of North America. The flowers are a deep red colour, and the plant takes its name Wake-robin by analogy with the Robin, which has a red breast that heralds spring.
