It is not an officially protected species but you cannot harvest it on public land. You need the permission of the owner of private land.

Princess pine was once much prized for holiday wreath making and roping. Harvesting for this purpose combined with habitat loss (it needs shaded, undisturbed soil) had resulted in its scarcity. Protected or not, as an endangered species it is best left undisturbed and enjoyed in its native locations!

Is it legal to pick princess pine?

You need to check the laws in your jurisdiction. Princess pine (lycopodium) is a protected species in some states such as Indiana and New York. In others it is protected on state lands, within state conservation areas or in natural habitat areas. Some states require a permit to harvest princess pine on public land. Generally, you cannot harvest plants in state and federal parks. You need the permission of the owner on private land. In areas where it can be harvested you should practice moderation so the area will regrow. Some stems should be clipped near the base to encourage some regeneration. The dispersal of spores during harvest will also also help the area to regrow so a good shake of the plant over the disturbed ground where it was grown may help that process.
