Re: Seed Exchange TIME TO COOL OFF!

 

Hi Mark,

IMHO It's just not practical to expect the exchange to keep up with all the state and national regs. Individual members need to take the responsibility of knowing the regulations in their area and not ordering banned species.  However Banning" I. pseudacorus does take care of a lot of this AND the others issues mentioned. Banning is a strong word. It think its more that we've simply said that we are not interested in type I. psedu. seeds for the exchange, if for no other reasons they don't sell.

Rodney,
      Great idea.  By the way, I have an idea of my own here.   Since mail order nurseries either will not ship to certain places, and more frequently, do not ship certain plants to certain places, maybe SIGNA can adopt the same policy?  If certain type of seeds are too problematic, donât offer them.  If other types of Irid seeds are not problematic, but are banned in certain states or countries, why not offer them, but donât ship seeds of certain species to locations in which the plants are banned?  Busting up on those who run the seed exchange is not a viable answer in this.
