Are there any lists with the plants forbidden for sale?
Apart from those with plant breeders rights,
there are "declared weeds" and plants that might be used as drugs.
Are there lists for the nursery trade?
Take care with plant breeders rights, the signs on the labels are tiny!

All herbs are local. Some USAin herbs are listed as endangered, and you can end up with your asterisk being handed back to you on a platter if you wildcraft them. I expect a search local-to-you will evoke from your DNR (division of natural resources, aka fish & game) lists of what thou shall not pick. These sites often come complete with descriptions on how they will rip out an arm and beat you with it, in glowing terms. Still with all this anti-puffing, there are outfits that may flask hard-to-grow and protected herbs. Growing them by cellular division or other technique above our paygrade. I do for example buy young lady slipper from a Michigan outfit that flasks seed. I have not been growing them for long enough to transplant new babies yet. As my population increases I will talk to my local DNR about what they want for certification for replantation. Another popular herb here is ginseng. Most of the root goes back to asian markets. I dunno if I'll live long enough for this very slow woodland herb to have its roots collected. (Expect a 10 to 25 year turn around). I will and do disburse seed. Both in other wilderness settings, and to poor local people for their husbandry. Ginseng Goldenseal are local-to-me herbs with a Fair cash and utility value. Of more import to me their seed are (if cold stratified) fairly stable. Bloodroot's seed is gelatinous and not particularly transportable.  So its a much slower deal growing out seeds to make seedlings... |

The blissful days of the sixties (and seventies) are long passed. it is no longer possible to grow your pot in the chief of police' flower bed.
If you are contemplaitng growing your own, its probably past time to know where local legislation is, and to paint inside its lines.

It is not only about pot (which is a valuable medicinal and fibre plant btw) There are other plants here which you are not allowed to grow and i could not find the list so far. There are classified weeds on the top of it which you are not allowed to grow. Horsetail for example, a valuable medicinal which is imported from overseas. It is so weedy here that I never ever saw a plant in Australia. But with our meager returns it does not pay to get in trouble with the law.
GL the article you mention is from 2011 I don't think that this law has passed. The article mentions plants as forbidden:
but they write INCLUDE that means there are more and as far as I know NSW is extra restrictive.

I'm up to my axles getting Apios americana to plant out in the next few days. I'm not at all sure where this legume fall in the plant spectrum in New South Wales.

Apios americana is a favourite of mine - and it is flowering for me for the first time since I have grown it. I am not sure that it will be able to ripen pods before frost (if indeed it will form pods as I am not sure if mine is diploid or triploid) but I am keeping my fingers crossed. I would have thought it would be close to harvest in NSW as it is here, or are you putting in tubers for next year?

Supposedly Goldenseal is an endangered plant here, and I am not supposed to take it out of, (or offer it outside of) USA.
Anybody of a mind to gamble?

some plants that are not "illegal" are poisonous, so that maybe something to watch out for. for example the red berries on a certain yew bush (actually its only the green pit inside the red berry), wisteria seeds, Daffodil bulbs, Lily-of-the-Valley may not kill you but parents should keep away from small children, Rhubarb leaf, etc.
