Friends, It seems to me there may be quite a few 'collection holders'. that grow a lot of specialty plants that may not show up on many commercial or seed list, but are still circulated and 'present'. I think of my own fairly large number of Lycoris and others with similar esoteric species and selections of Hippeastrum, Gethyllis, Nerine and more. In the perennial area there are even more. Within Lycoris as a poor example, all the species have been grown in the US except for 1 rare obscure species. Even if all the grown species are given the OK, how could any reasonable list exclude the last rare species if it ever were to come into cultivation? Shouldn't the entire genus get approval.? If 20 of 21 species are "present", what is the chance that one unknown will be the one that is invasive? I am sure the same must be true of numerous other at the genus level and possibly at the Family level. Are there any weedy carnivorous plants? Weedy Tecophiliaceae. ? etc. Thinking about this as another heavy hand of the government. Will it make any sense? Best Jim W. -- Dr. James W. Waddick 8871 NW Brostrom Rd.
