Yes, I know it is an "invasive weed", but it is also my favorite wild edible that I can't seem to find in the wild anymore. My state is working to eradicate it. I would like to grow some very responsibly in containers or a small patch of garden.  Is there anyone out there who has access to some, and would be willing to save some seeds for me?

Your best bet might be to forage some. It’s not even clear if it’s legal to send seeds like that in the mail, especially across state lines. The USDA or somebody could be trying to regulate that.

It depends on where it is called invasive.

Here is someone selling the seeds:

Listen. That's my theme music. That's how I know I'm a super hero. That, and this tiny ad told me:
