upcoming IAS show and sale

From: "Alan Galloway" <alan_galloway at ncsu.edu> on 2004.08.27 at 17:12:32(12063)
Folks,
I've been meaning to send this email for some time, but have just been too
busy.
Was talking with an IAS member some weeks back and he mentioned that there
used to be a contest at the IAS show and sale where individuals would enter
their largest specimen of Pistia (water lettuce). He said some were huge.
Would there be any interest in reviving this contest? Sounds like a lot of
fun, especially for kids.

definately begin my giant for next year.

Unfortunately it is now illegal to own a pistia, let alone show the plant at the show. I brought in one in the crystal award that goes with it and had it taken by our Plant Inspector.
So there goes our fun. Alan Fernandez would not be pleased.

Since when(or where) is it illegal to own pistia? It is still sold here
in PA in all of the local nurseries and when i had water gardens i
always had it..

Probably because they have become invasive in Florida and a few other states and clog waterways like water hyacinth. I dont think they are illegal in my state yet, (South Carolina) but I know they have invaded a few of our coastal waterways to a lesser extent, (they most likely die back like water hyacinth during the colder winters.)

list, Morning glories, Persicaria, Houttynia, all
mints and oregano/marjoran, you get the idea.
