Your local authorities can advise you as to your current import requirements. If an import permit is required, we will need a copy. In most cases, we must provide a Phytosanitary Certificatedocumenation with your order.

 

Not all hybrids and species we sell can be exported. We will need to confirm availability before shipping. We must bare root all plants that we ship overseas including Hawaii. Please allow time for your orders to be inspected before shipment.

We charge a processing fee of $7.50 for Phytosanitary Certificates alone. Hawaiian customers must have an import permit issued by the State of Hawaii.
