Conservation Status of Trillium in North America.

Emerging as one of the first signs of spring, the iconic Trillium are loved by many. Yet, 32 percent of all North American Trillium taxa are quietly threatened with extinction. Join Amy Highland, the Director of Collections and Conservation Lead for Mt. Cuba Center, as she presents the Conservation Status of Trillium in North America. This comprehensive report, created in conjunction with the Albuquerque Bio Park, the International Union for the Conservation of Nature, and Natureserve, illustrates a change in our understanding of species, their distribution, and the threats they face in the wild. Come see the first comprehensive report on North American Trillium since Fred and Roberta Case’s 1997 monograph.
