Totally agree with you. - A friend of ours frequently takes native species seeds (and even tree seedlings) from gardens and scatters them on uncultivated land in the 'wild'. - It does tend to confuse council / highways maintenance departments though when they find things they hadn't planted!

I do that with Sunflower Seeds in random places

I love bluebells. When my hubby sold his house and moved in with me we tried to get some from his garden but they didn't take which was a shame. There is a rogue one on the land by my allotment (on the site) and I want to get it and put it in my garden.

Sounds like a Guerrilla Gardener! Great stuff.

If you just mow your lawn regularly this will kill them off. Only traditional lawn weeds with low growing, broad leaves can withstand regular mowing.

I spread mine about by simple division of the bulbs.
