Picking Trillium for their flower can seriously injure the plant. The three leaves (more correctly leafy bracts) below the flower are the plant’s only ability to produce food stores and a picked trillium can take many years to recover.
For this reason in many areas, e.g. British Columbia, Michigan, New York, Minnesota, and WASHINGTON, it is illegal to pick and/or transplant trilliums from public lands without a permit from the State.
