from another world

newport_1474

well maybe just Newport, washington but it sure looks like it.  anyone know what this is?? I found it while on a walk near near a pond.  It is huge too the leaves are probably 3 times as big as my hands.

a close up view of the flower:

edited to add I have found out what this plant is thanks to Laura at pretty pix    in her own words: It's a Trillium, a wildflower that likes our damp cool Springs, here in the Pacific Northwest

thanks Laura and everyone else check out her blog its AWESOME

    The flower looks like an iris but the leaves are too large. Maybe you've discovered a new species!
