Re: HYB: importing breeding stock?


It shouldn't be any problem at all.  Just postage.  The seeds have to be completely free of all plant material (leaves, stems, pods) just in case someone decides to inspect them.  No documentation is needed for seeds.  Correct me if I'm wrong, but that is the way it has always been unless things have changed recently.
