"Real" ," Gardens'" and the BX

Hi all,

Marie-Paule is at a real disadvantage in shipping bulbs to the USA. They
need a phytosanitary certificate ("phyto") to be sure they will get into
this country.

Seeds are not so bad if the recipient has the USDA "Small Lots of Seeds"
import permit. In this case, no phyto is needed. Dell, you do have the
SLS permit, don't you? I have one that has worked fine for me.

Best wishes,
Jim Shields

Hello,
Sorry if it is not possible to send more seeds (I don't have seeds) or bulbs
(maybe) a few, to the BX, maybe if I donate some money for the BX once a
year? Would that be better? So if people do not send often seeds or bulbs
but ask? Don't be afraid to ask from me personal an input. I have no problem
with that.
Regards,
Marie-Paule
