[PCA] Request for information on propagating, transplanting or introducing either Isotria verticillata or Trillium flexipes

[Snyder, Eric (MNR)]

Hi,
 
I'm looking for information on the feasibility, potential detriments and benefits of propagating, transplanting or introducing either Isotria verticillata or Trillium flexipes.  Does anyone have experience with this or know of publications on the subject? 
 
Thank you for any information you can offer.
 
Kind regards ...
 
Eric

 "If it had been expended solely upon the plants which are grown to please the eye, or which invite us by their nutrimental properties, this laborious research on the part of the ancients would not have been so surprising; but in addition to this, we find them climbing by devious tracts to the very summit of mountains, penetrating to the very heart of wilds and deserts, and searching into every vein and fibre of the earth-and all this, to discover the hidden virtues of every root, the properties of the leaf of every plant, and the various purposes to which they might be applied." - Gaius Plinius Secundus, c. 77A.D.
