We have found trout lilies in only one small area on our entire 11 acres: on the south end of the lower meadow, where trees and creek come together. They're hard to spot even when I know where to look; they're small and delicate and they do a great job blending into the weeds. The blossoms last a very short time; by the end of the summer, that whole area will be overrun by towering ironweed and joe pye weed. But that won't stop the trout lilies from coming back next spring.
