wake-robin
Wake-robin is a common name for several plant species, often those belonging to the Trillium genus, which are flowering plants native to temperate regions in North America and Asia. The name is particularly used to refer to Trillium erectum, also known as red trillium, due to its three blood-red petals. The term "wake-robin" is said to originate from its blossoming around the same time robins return in spring.
