I get there are all manners of ownership under our system, for better or worse, but considering the ownership of plant material is really is a big grey area. But I do like the middle ground provided here. While I don't think people truly "own" plants, you do have a duty of care to them. A clipping here or there when asked for isn't a bad thing. And this is one area where I think the 'tragedy of the commons' won't be an issue. This is fascinating, it definitely falls into the basket of ethics, and ethics is different for everyone.
