Seconded. Far quicker than I expected when I tried it. Andrew No it is not a particularly long wait, probably 3 weeks. I am away from work so i do not have their web address handy. James Frelichowski Is it a very long wait to get a seed permit from APHIS after submitting an application? This was a big subject last year, but it didn't concern me until now, so I didn't pay attention. I'm considering to import some Passiflora seeds from Costa Rica.
