Ontario Provincial Flower "The Trillium" is a Spring Flower

Trilliums in Bloom

One of the first signs of spring is the number of spring flowers that begin to bloom, even before all of the snow melts. It is good luck to make a wish when you see your first spring wildflower. You make the wish for someone else, and all the joys of spring will go to both you and the person you wished for. The Province of Ontario has their official flower the Trillium.
