Trillium
Added 2022-05-21 01:14:20 +0000 UTCIt’s a delicate flower trillium and one of our best indicators of the health of the forest. A flower with delicate roots, only capable of producing enough energy to bring itself back the next year.
A lot of people believe that you can not pick it. That to take one of these is to ensure that it will not return, and that is half true. If you take just the tiny flower above the three leaves and leave the rest below trillium will come back the next year. It will invest more of itself into stronger roots, and return. But it does not leave you very much flower to use.
Just enough to adorn your loves hair, or for them to hold in their hand. But that is plenty enough for us.
