The Yellow Trout Lily is a charming spring perennial, which thrives in moist soils. Preferring partial to full shade, the Yellow Trout Lily flourishes in wooded areas. Its distinctive yellow, nodding flowers, which bloom in early spring, are marked by dark purple-brown speckling, resembling trout markings. The blooms provide important early-season nectar and pollen to a variety of pollinators.
