Trillium rugelii
Southern Nodding Trillium is a spring flowering perennial plant. It hangs its flower below the leaves. The stamen are shorter than the pistil.
It prefers to grow near streams in humus-rich soil under the shade of deciduous trees. This one was spotted at the Stevens Creek Heritage Preserve near Clarks Hill (McCormick County), SC.
It is also called illscented wakerobin.
