Tom,
Believe it or not, the best thing to do is to go visit your ag agent. There
is quite the problem in importing plants. They have to be bare rooted and
will be fumigated with methel bromide. If you are not getting along with the
ag agent you are importing thru, and if this is your business, shop around
for another port. San Diego, San Franciso, Oakland, Portland. They all have
federal regs to follow, but each one is run differently.
These regs are for our safety and the safety of our crops. If you feel it is
a little overboard, start lobbying
