|discussion=<p><i>Erythronium albidum</i> often forms extensive colonies in which nonflowering, 1-leaved plants far outnumber flowering, 2-leaved ones. It is very widespread in eastern North America, more common in the central states than <i>E. americanum</i> and often occurs in slightly drier sites.</p>
