Ginny:
It's a small world. I just noticed this yesterday at the USDA's
'Noxious Weeds Home Page' at:
www.aphis.usda.gov/oa/weeds/weedhome.html
In case any Canadians are interested in seeing the seeds defined
as Prohibited Noxious Weed Seeds in the 'Weed Seeds Order'
by the Canadian gov't, I've listed them at my homepage:
www.em.ca/~garden
A few of the seeds in the Canadian list are available in
various seed catalogues (which I bet must get complicated if
the plant is a Canadian native plant).
