Trillium catesbaei (Catesby's trillium)

I was shooting a rhododendron and looked down and saw these funny things. Unlike typical T. catesbaei all of the plants were holding their flowers high above the leaves, as happens rarely in North and South Carolina. West-facing slope on NC-9 above Broad River, north of Bat Cave, Buncombe County, North Carolina
