Donald,
There is some chance this could happen, but it would be easy to avoid.
If one goes through the garden, and removes the seed pods before they can
mature, it will not escape cultivation. A few people raise Iris
pseudacorus here, and so far, I have not heard of it even existing outside
of gardens.
Thinking of Kudzu, so far, that does not exist here, but the Skunk
Vine and Air Potato has been found three miles away.
The check to cover the postage on BLACK GAMECOCK goes out tomorrow.
