Prairie Trillium

Trillium recurvatum

These unique, dark trillium plants caught our eye while we were exploring woods in Jersey County, Illinois. This species usually has splotchy green leaves. dailybotany suggested these trillium plants may have upped their anthocyanin production in response to exposure to higher levels of solar radiation. There were a few of these trilliums with dark leaves in the general area, and it may have been a sunnier than usual spot in the understory of the forest there, so this theory makes sense. I still wonder if it's possible this small population carries a genetic mutation... I have explored many woods and never seen trilliums this dark. I love listening to different theories and learning new info.

Trillium recurvatum is native to much of the Mississippi River basin in the central / eastern United States. Eastern Ohio has a few populations, which are listed as potentially threatened by their DNR. There are also a couple isolated populations in North Carolina, but it's debated whether or not they were actually planted long ago. Its closest lookalike with overlapping range is trillium sessile; however, the sepals on s. recurvatum plants curve downward as the flower opens, and the stem is usually much shorter than on t. sessile. This species can grow in habitats ranging from floodplains, to mesic forests and mesic savannas. Often, they're found growing in calcareous soils or over calcium-rich rocks such as limestone.

So I was going through some of your old posts about Io (I'm obsessed with ly) and you mentioned lu has six kids, can we hear about the ones that haven't appeared 'on screen' yet?

there is so much coming about the grampas LAMP era and im very excited about a lot of it,

about 3 years after Mimi and Collie are born come the "triplets" who are equally funny in their arrival

Io wakes up early again in the next particularly hot year, Collie and Mimi are about the equivalent of 7-8

and in rapid succession, The wildflower meadow that functions as their "lawn" spawns

Addy (Addalindis, white trillum nymph, she/lu) in mid-spring,

a month later Rissa (Nerissa, virgiinia bluebell nymph, she/her) in late spring,

and then ANOTHER month later in early summer there's Lucy (Lucius, black-eyed susan nymph, they/them)

at which point they start to wonder if they should maybe pull up the wildflower bed because theyve unlocked an infinite offspring glitch, but another month comes and goes and nothing happens so they leave it. and you have the world most aggressive case of yearling triplets

The last kid, Seren May (fae/faer at birth and eventually she/her) comes when mimi and collie are ~13-14 and the triplets are 7-esque. Fae is Remus and Io's only child born via gestation. Fae is a late birthday present for Roman (birthday Feb 2nd) born February 9th. That birth is significantly less funny :)

dronarry fest fic claim: trillium

trillum | E | 13.4k

It’s a typical Friday night.

They’re in their usual Diagon haunt, getting slowly tipsy on craft beer, eating artisanal crisps, talking shite. Normal.

Ron sucks cheese and onion dust from his fingers and stares at the new gold hoop in Harry’s right earlobe as Harry waxes lyrical over some Muggle record Ron’s never heard of when in barges Draco, thirty minutes late, dragging in armfuls of heavy canvas bags bulging with paperwork. 

Draco shoves them beneath the table, knocking carelessly against Ron’s ankles, and when he stands, he blows his pale fringe from his forehead, places his hands on his hips, and announces, “I just quit my job.”

He picks up Ron’s pint and downs the last half, one hand curled over Ron’s shoulder for balance, his thumb warm where it presses against the skin of Ron’s throat.

Murmurs erupt. Questions are posed.

“Good for you, mate,” Ron says, but instead of listening to Draco talk about how good it feels to finally be free from the cruel and tedious clutches of Magical Maintenance, Ron watches Harry instead, trying to read the subtle shifts in his expression. 

The ‘o’ of his mouth. The furrow of his brow. The way his fingers twitch against his glass.

And then, Harry asks it. The question that gives him away—or, rather, the question that gives him away to Ron:

“What are you going to do now?”

He sounds far too curious and incredulous for his own good. He might as well have asked, why didn’t you talk to me about this first?

Ron’s not sure anyone else knows what’s going on, but he’s no fool. It’s all in plain sight, if one looks hard enough (and Ron always does): the sneaking glances, the hand brushes that linger far longer than a hand brush ought to, the tender shoulder touches. The way they’ve both been carrying the same shagged-out glow for weeks.

They’re fucking. Ron’s certain.

🌺🍃🏰🌳

The one where Harry owns a gardening business, Draco is an aspiring National Trust property owner, and Ron is far too invested in the fit of Draco’s lovely clothes and the smell of Harry’s hair. But he doesn’t fancy them or anything like that.

My SF novel finalist at the Trillium Book Award!

My recent SF novel, Le secret de Paloma is a Trillum Book Award finalist, in the children's books category.

I learned that my SF novel is a finalist in the prestigious Trillium Book Awards, an Ontario distinction. It is a very media-covered prize, so that brought a lot of distractions. My SF novel, Le secret de Paloma (Paloma’s Secret) is finalist in the children’s books category. As the three books are aimed at teenagers/YA, the name children’s book can be a misnomer. The Trillium Book Awards are…
