Great news! I wonder how he gets them through customs (probably uses American
cigarettes as bribes). I think it is illegal to bring live plants into the
country. Does he have a garden? Where does he live (city?)? Maybe next trip I can
look him up--I usually go in summer and over the winter holidays.

You probably made a wide investment--anything with a Nazi swastika is quite
collectible. There's a military goods dealer in Minneapolis who does quite a
healthy trade in such things.
