Moon Flowers Illegal

The legality of moonflowers can vary depending on the specific plant in question and your location. “Moonflower” commonly refers to several plants, including Ipomoea alba, a species of morning glory known for its large, fragrant, white flowers that bloom at night.

In some regions, plants in the genus Ipomoea may be regulated or restricted because they can produce seeds containing lysergic acid amide (LSA), a compound with psychoactive properties. More specifically, the seeds of certain morning glories can be used in a similar fashion to hallucinogenic substances, leading to restrictions in some areas.

However, Ipomoea alba itself is not generally listed as a controlled substance. It’s advisable to check local laws and regulations if you are considering growing or buying moonflowers or any other plant with potential legal issues. In some places, even the ornamental use of certain plants might come with specific regulations.

If you have a specific concern about moonflowers being illegal in your area, it might be best to contact local agricultural extension services or legal authorities who can provide more specific guidance based on your jurisdiction.
