Hi all,

Marie-Paule is at a real disadvantage in shipping bulbs to the USA.  They 
need a phytosanitary certificate ("phyto") to be sure they will get into 
this country.

Seeds are not so bad if the recipient has the USDA "Small Lots of Seeds" 
import permit.  In this case, no phyto is needed.  Dell, you do have the 
SLS permit, don't you?  I have one that has worked fine for me.

Best wishes,
Jim Shields
