Unsubstantiated claim[edit]

There is an image in this wiki article with a caption that makes an unsubstantiated claim (see below). In the book Trilliums by Frederick and Roberta Case, we find the following contradictory claim: "No hybrids of Trillium grandiflorum have ever been documented."^[1] This is the same Frederick Case who authored the Trilliums section in Flora of North America.^[2] I believe the burden of proof is on the claim in the wiki article: it should be removed unless it can be substantiated.

A sterile hybrid between Trillium cernuum and T. grandiflorum
