Hi all
I asked about importing bare root hepaticas this week and got this reply. I was able to get the permit and labels very quickly on the USDA site. However I am not sure how many plants are permitted. I also am not sure how the permit works if you order more than one genus. The sender would provide the phytosanitary certification. An additional permit is needed if you are importing Cites plants or bulbs.

You small lots of seed permit does not cover plant material other than seed. In order to import this material you will need a separate PPQ 587 permit (as well as a phytosanitary certificate from the country of origin). In order to apply for the permit, please use the ePermits system. Select “planting and propagation” under the intended use box when adding the article.

Did you really mean *with* phytosanitary certificates? If a shipment is accompanied by a phytosanitary certificate, it doesn’t matter if there are fewer than or greater than 12 items; they should all be able to be imported into the U.S.
