Hamilton, 2007 : 'B. Steury and M. Strong determined that vouchers collected and identified as Trillium sessile by Peggy Fleming were actually Trillium luteum (see "Noteworthy Collections: Maryland, District of Columbia" by Brent W. Steury in Castanea 65(3):228-231).'
Steury, 2000: These are the first reports of yellow trillium from the District of Columbia. . . . Future floras of Rock Creek Park should include Trillium luteum while Trillium sessile should be deleted from the flora of the park unless a new population is discovered./
