wanted to take it out of someone's yard it wouldn't be a problem (unless
the owner of the land objects!). Take it from the wild and the fine is
about $500.....


Aha. Kind of what I figured. I knew there were wild flower laws...

Off to the shops I go.
Thanks for the info.

btw, I'll be lurking around. Will be moving to a house with the garden of
my dreams soon, after living in an apartment since May when I landed on
these shores from England. I'm so excited... even bought a Texas Gardener!
