Troutlily's reddish-brown flower stalk arises from the junction of the paired leaves; its tip (and consequently the single flower) is bent down at a 30-45° angle. Each flower is about 1.5" long but may be only 1/2" wide at night or early in the morning or over 1" wide later in the day as the petals spread. Each flower has six white tepals (three petals and three petal-like sepals), six stamens with large yellow anthers, and a single white style with a three-lobed stigma. The fruit is a three-chambered seed capsule about 3/4" long attached to the flower stalk which may nod when immature but the stalk straightens so the capsule is erect when mature.
