|discussion=<p>Trillium chloropetalum var. giganteum occurs in and around the San Francisco Bay region.</p><!--
--><p>The epithet “giganteum” is appropriate, considering this variety’s large size. In the populations that I have observed, it was more robust and generally larger than var. chloropetalum. Narrow-petaled forms of var. giganteum occasionally occur in mixed populations with the wider-petaled ones, and in a few places almost exclusively. J. D. Freeman (1975) suggested that these could represent the “undiluted” var. giganteum, free from influences of hybridization, as the type specimen has narrow petals.</p>
