Every state does this, as a matter of fact. In my mind if a professional in the field does not follow their easy and simple guidelines, they aren't a professional, particularly when there are so many other alternatives.

Personally, I would not be willing to give up a job just because the homeowner insisted on planting something that I knew was not right but I would certainly give them all reasons why their choice is a bad idea. Let's face it, if Ron and other ethical landscapers didn't give it to these homeowners, someone else would.
