I grow a large butler's sink full of them, they're very pretty.
If they get over enthusiastic in the garden I pull them out, no problem,

come out very readily.

Why do you dislike wild plants so much?

I've got a great idea: why don't you come and weed them out of my lawn,
maybe you know something I don't - or maybe your climate's a lot drier?

Creeping buttercups are one of Britain's top agricultural pests: they're
poisonous to livestock and on moist soils they swamp most crops. If you
let them spread onto your neighbour's land they can sue you. And my
garden's only about ten metres by fifteen - very few British gardeners
have room for agricultural-scale weeds.

Vegetation's only wild if it's growing in the wild.

Oh my...

ALL garden plants originate from wild plants.
There is very little in a cultivated garden, except the wild plants, that is
natural.
I remove plenty of unwanted plants when they are 'in the wrong place'.
I am not a farmer, which is, by the way, also totally unnatural.

Just as well my neighbours and I get on very well as a great part of their
garden is full of wild plants, stinging nettles, buttercups, creeping
grasses etc etc, otherwise I 'could' sue them... the thought of it, good
grief .. whatever next...

I am flabberghasted at this dislike of anything you don't approve of. What a
shame.

It will please you to know that I shall unsubscribe from this group.
I was here for the fun of it, but you sure aren't any fun.
Such bitterness and hatred is very sad.
