Komoriya Nursery on eBay?

Komoriya Nursery on eBay?

Just to be sure that what I believe was Bob Lauf's point isn't obscured
by the talk of phytosanitary certificates, and at the risk of belaboring
it -

My understanding, and I'd be happy to be corrected, is that a phyto is
necessary to import live plants into the US by mail, but it's not
sufficient. You and the vendor must also go through the rest of the
process that Bob described, or take the risk that customs will choose to
open that package and destroy the plants, even if there's a phyto in the
box.

That said, I know there are many plant vendors, probably thousands, on
eBay and elsewhere who routinely mail plants into the US without doing
any of that, and apparently get away with it enough to continue doing
it. Or maybe they think at that point they already have your money, so
it's your risk and they don't care. I see lots of plants on eBay I'd buy
at that price, but nearly every international vendor I've actually
contacted to see if they'd comply with the US import process has replied
that they don't bother with all that, they just package up the plants
and mail them and "don't worry, they'll get there". The ones that will
usually say so on their site.

It is nice to know they ship to the US. I used to purchase and ship to my
address in Japan.
They are so talented. One of their family members, an uncle created white
Gloriosa.
I will order this summer.
Thank you.

Hi Paul,

I've purchased many bulbs from them via Ebay exclusively and they do ship
to the US without the need of a phyto certificate. The do however cut off
and roots and leaves and sometimes it does take a bit of time for them to
start growing new roots. The offer some very beautiful hybrids and they

are

an bit expensive bit in my opinion, worth it.

Good Luck,
Fred

Hello:

Has anyone purchased bulbs from Komoriya Nursery on eBay? More
specifically: Do they ship to the US with a phyto certificate? Good/bad
experiences?

Or does anyone have an e-mail address for them?

They seem to be a legitimate company, and they say that they ship to the
US, but they don’t mention anything about a phyto certificate in their

eBay

listing. Their regular website is “under construction,” and it doesn’t
have an e-mail listed or a Contact Us page. I’m a bit leery to order
something from Japan without a phyto.

Thanks for the info.
…Paul
