Subject: Field collection of carnivorous plants

Hey Folks,

I've been seeing the thread on field collection. It is nice to see
the conservation conversation.

Just so that silence is not misinterpreted as a lack of interest, I want
to point out that the ICPS condemns most forms of field collection. The
ICPS conservation is online at the ICPS web site.

A more elaborate set of statements on field collection are on the (ICPS
approved) carnivorous plant FAQ, specifically:

**May I collect carnivorous plants from the wild?
http://www.sarracenia.com/faq/faq424.html

**Why can't I collect plants if the land they live on is being destroyed
anyway?
http://www.sarracenia.com/faq/faq428.html

Cheers

Barry
