Dear Richard, At my Nursery the Inspector would walk over several hundred  
acres. Anywhere I grew anything, It sometimes took her 2 days! Russ

However,  many nurseries have it in their private collections and at least,
the USDA  and Cal inspectors turn a blind eye. This is what I have been told
by  nurserymen. Of course, once the DEA starts looking under your bed,
nothing  is safe.

Lophophora  williamsii is a schedule 1 drug plant. All parts of it growing 
or
not are  Illegal to possess without a DEA license.  I can assure you  cactus
bowl sellers do not have DEA licenses.  I don't know the date  of it 
becoming
scheduled so perhaps it was available in the past. It is  clearly on the 
list
now. 

I don't grow any cactus so don't know  about this genus and its other spp ,
but California's own law forbids  growing ANY species in this genus.

Among
my plants was L.
