I understand in some states it really is illegal if done on public lands. The thing is the plant needs the leaves and flower to regenerate enough food for the bulb to store so it can make the next years flower. If picked it will take roughly 7 years before it recovers and comes up again, hence the scarcity and reason to not pick them so they can continue to reproduce. The bulb grows very very deep and is hard to retrieve unless you are super careful and the casual harvester would likely destroy it. I took one successfully 20 years ago from private land that was to be logged, and now it has reproduced into 20+ plants!
no
No it is not illegal. It is only illegal when you harm them. For example, if you pick them or uproot them.
In some states, like Michigan, ( also new york) it is illegal to pick trilliums, I'm guessing that u may pick trilliums on your own property, but I would make sure first
yes
Each state makes the determination about which is their state plant. Several states have the violet which is very common and no one has forbidden picking the violet flower. Ohio has the trillium as the state wild flower. Picking trilliums is illegal in Michigan and Minnesota. The problem with trilliums is picking the flower kills the plant.
