I wasn't as clear as I should have been. I,too, trade cuttings and seeds willynily. What I was quoting was the "official" state law on endangered plants and the collection of ANY plant material on STATE property. Private property is different and nonendangered plants are different.
But according to the state, if you are caught transporting endangered plant materials you must have a receipt showing a valid source. otherwise, big bucks. ( of course, what are the odds that anyone outside a dedicated plant freak like us would recognize endangered plants?)
My own personal viewm is that if you can grow it, plant it. If you are going to kill it, admire it from a distance.
