What would you think if I were to plant some sunflower seeds evry now and again on this land? I did read somewhere one should never plant corn flower seeds anywhere apartf rom your own garden as they are quite prolific once they get started and the farmers hate them. I obviously don't want to get in to trouble. It's never a good idea to plant non-native species where they cannot be controlled. it's probably not very polite to plant anything on other people's land. If you introduce invasive weeds you could be charged with trespass or criminal damage. If you do want to brighten up a scrap of land, you ought to be thinking of native wild plants. Your local wildlife trust may have information, and possibly even sell seeds. http://www.lincstrust.org.uk/factshe...adow/index.php That's a good idea. - and do get the permission of the landowner How does one find out who the landowner is? The tractor drivers who work the fields just seem to be subbies. |
