Gerhard, I misread your eMail message. If the package is colmikngiknto Ohio the answer is probably yes, but Thimble Farms can usually arrange such a purchase to be shipped from within the U.S. as I recall. Have you checked with the seller?. ----- Original Message ----- From: <Ger.Stickroth@t-online.de> To: "pbs maillist" <pbs@lists.ibiblio.org> Sent: Tuesday, November 10, 2009 1:24 PM Subject: [pbs] Import Permit > Hello, > > can anyone help with advice. > > I am ordering some cypripedium from Thimble Farms in Canada for shipment > to Ohio.
