Hi

A word of advice wanted please.
snip
The question is would we be breaking the any laws if we wereto find
a spot
by the side of the road where nettles, daisy and buttercups grow and
dig up
some of the plants to transplant into our bank and the patch at the
bottom
of the garden to give it a head start.

It is an offence under the 1981 Countryside Protection Act to remove
'any' plant from the wild.

Thanks for all the useful answers.. I have located a friends garden with
nettles, so he gets a free weeding and with the link to the Meadow site I
will now stick with plugs bought or self grown. I think the soil may be my
only problem.
Regards
Steve
