are people traipsing through planted lilies or what?

Very common, at least here in California, for there to be nice blooms of flowers that people decide to obliterate so they can take pictures for social media. By the time the 80th troglodyte traipses through the flowers, they've ruined it for everyone else that might enjoy them - and the flowers are fucked.

I can almost guarantee that this is the point of the comic. The only other interpretation I've seen that I can accept is that it's actually about the grass between your toes, which some people dislike.

why would they need to trample them to take photos?

Because they aren't interested in the flowers, they're interested in how they look with the flowers all around them. It's a selfish act for vain individuals.
