   Don’t pick wildflowers, leave them there for the rest of us to enjoy and to produce seed for next year’s flowers.

    So, then…. should… EVERY… tree and vine and flora and fauna should be allowed to grow, to outgrow everything and everyone, including animals and man? And what about the grains and trees and vegetation that puts food on our plate? Should we not pick them? What about the medicines that come from them? Our bedsheets? Our clothes?

    There seems to be good reason why there’s winds in place to shift landscapes, and why picking flowers in reasonable amounts is a part of the balance that keeps our planet in order… why there’s wildfires, both natural and man made (the controlled, legal kind, mind you…) and though not everyone may put faith in it, and this is JUST to give a reference and prove this point, but even the Bible has instances that show that these things are okay, including the picking of flowers….

    So say DeSylva, Brown and Henderson. And if you don’t know who they are, you should. Each is in the Songwriter’s Hall of Fame.

    Curiously, there are a BUNCH (please pardon the pun) of internet “urban legends” going about about the question of legality of picking… but many reliable sources of information that show that in the US, it is not illegal, outside of picking them on private property (more of the trespassing laws, not because of picking), or the wildlife/ national park preserves, or the endangered species laws, or the public safety laws (e.g., picking them on the side of a busy highway)…

    May I ask if maybe any of these reasons are the basis for why it’s illegal to do so in Canada? And may I also ask if it also has to do with the protecting of Canadian emblems, as well? I’d be curious to find out this, as well…always love interesting facts…
