I'll be happy to sell Tomatillo seeds to you, but you are responsible 
for contacting your local agriculture authority. Tomatillos certainly 
do spread like weeds if you don't keep them under control.

Call your local ag people and ask them if Physalis Ixocarpa is a 
permitted crop, then let us all know.
