those other plants (around the trilliums) look like May Apples. If so, they will get a flower that is quite pretty and quite hidden from view. Go to the net and type in May Apples photo - the leaves are very similiar if not the same.

shiva-
American Mayapple-Podophyllum peltatum, it is definitely a woodland plant and will spread over time. I don't know that I would put it in a flower bed. This is a stand of them on our property. The flower is white and you basically have to lift the leaf to see it. Most of them die back by the end of June around here.
