Maybe it is illegal in the sense that some succulents ARE invasive species

I do know that people go to garden shops looking for free material for growth lying on the ground, which id argue is unnecessary. Most people who own plants or a garden will happily share with you the fact if you show the ittyest bittiest piece of interest in them, and also share plants as well.

Hell I regularly give out succulent saplings for free or as a gift to friends and people I meet.

So yeah, you can just ask man, it's no biggie

Someone in my town has a big clump of some kind of tall ruffly flower that stands on a stalk amidst tall upwards-sticking blade leaves. Very neat and it seems to grow quickly to fill the area every spring. I've been too nervous to ask for a bit of it, but maybe I can buck up some courage and ask.

I'll tell in the spring, and let you know.

You can do it bro, I believe in you

and people I meet

I imagine you giving out small flowerpots with tiny succulents in them to surprised random people on the street and it made me chuckle.

Yeah, this is 100% plant people, my wife is a regular dispenser of spider plants, there are upwards of 10 jade plants in the house, snake plant and money plant are mid propagation and I strongly suspect we'll have multiple pink princesses by the end of next year and maybe a few new Swiss cheese plants - given the room we have remaining these will largely be distributed.
