I'm trying to contact people who would be willing to collect seed of 
certain plants for use in a research project on weed biocontrol.  Since 
you're from BC, maybe you could help.  I need the seeds of Asperula 
arvensis.  It's not a native plant, and it's also supposed to grow in 
Alberta, but I can't find it anywhere.  Any suggestions?

I did check the site above and got a positive response from the Oregon Native 
Plant Society, so hopefully they'll be collecting seed for me shortly.
