Is there a Kentucky law against digging up or destroying the Goldenrod plant since it is the State flower?

I am planning a senior prank. In some states it is illegal to dig up the state flower, so schools would be breaking the law by digging up flowers used as pranks at schools. You get the idea. Im wondering if this law exists in Kentucky referring to the Goldenrod. If it does, I would like to see proof of the law. Thanks.

Is there a Kentucky law against digging up or destroying the Goldenrod plant since it is the State flower?
There are more than 100 species of goldenrod native to Kansas. Kansas Revised Statutes 2.090 makes "goldenrod' the state flower, but does not say which one.





Some are protected species by federal and state law. You could not legally plant these for your prank.





Others have no protection at all so the school could dig them up whereever they find them.





Generally, if the law prevents the school from digging them up, it prohibits you from planting them in the first place.
Reply:Yes, you could go to jail
