Of course public gardens resent people rustling slips, but I have never had 
any compunction about taking a seed pod. Has anyone heard of public gardens 
having a policy against this? I want to suggest it to my readers, but I 
thought I'd better ask around first.
Yes, the National Park, Service, USNA/USDA, and the Smithsonain have very 
clear policies against taking of cuttings AND seeds from any parks, gardens, or 
plant exhibits. I believe most all public gardens have the same policy.
