. Atlas of the rare vascular plants of Ontario. Rare plants; Botany. HABITAT: Rich deciduous woods, often along river flats or on heavy basic soils associated with limestone. STATUS: Possibly extirpated in Canada. Possibly extirpated in Delaware and New York; rare in Arkansas, Maryland, Mississippi, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia. Status in other states under review. Only recently discovered in Georgia; specimens from North Carolina, Virginia, and West Virginia have recently been verified. NOTES: Bent trillium, so called for its flexed flower stalk, is closely related to Trillium erectum and
. Atlas of the rare vascular plants of Ontario. Rare plants; Botany. HABITAT: Rich deciduous woods, often along river flats or on heavy basic soils associated with limestone. STATUS: Possibly extirpated in Canada. Possibly extirpated in Delaware and New York; rare in Arkansas, Maryland, Mississippi, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia. Status in other states under review. Only recently discovered in Georgia; specimens from North Carolina, Virginia, and West Virginia have recently been verified. NOTES: Bent trillium, so called for its flexed flower stalk, is closely related to Trillium erectum and T. cernuum. Color forms of these closely allied species may confuse their identification; for example, plants of T. fiexipes may easily be mistaken for white- flowered red trilliums. Characteristics that best distinguish plants of T. fiexipes include a preference for calcareous soils, mostly white flowers with mildly musty fragrance, prominent white to pink ovary, and long creamy anthers on short filaments. A specimen at the University of Edinburgh, collected by Maclagen in 1849 from "islands in the Detroit River", is plotted approximately. Most specimens of T. fiexipes in Canada are more than a 100 years old; those from Essex County were collected in 1848 and 1849, and those from Middlesex County were collected in the 1880's and 1890's. HABITAT: Forêts riches en feuillus, souvent le long du lit majeur des rivières ou sur les sols basiques et lourds associés au calcaire. SITUATION: Peut-être déracinée au Canada. Peut- être déracinée au Delaware et dans l'Ãtat de New York; rare en Arkansas, au Maryland, au Mississippi, en Pennsylvanie et en Virginie de l'Ouest. Situation en cours de révision dans les autres Ãtats. Découverte récemment en Géorgie; spécimens de Caroline du Nord, de Virginie et de Virginie de l'Ouest en voie de vérification. REMARQUES: Le trille courbé, ainsi nommé en raison de la courbure de la tige fl
