I have a customer that would like to know about shipping a cutting to Canada. I have never done this and I think it's impossible. But I would like some comments from our friends from the north. Thanks.
plumeria cutting to Canada
On the record or off the record?
uh oh ! sounds like you need to email me.
hi ive gotten a few but they arent supposed to come without one of those cert. ohhh its getting hard but thanks to some traders im still recieving them lol but i didnt say this lol
Just for the record, I was able to pick up a couple locally in Vancouver with bloom buds on them. One I kept and one went up Island to brugcrazy. Good things happen when you're not expecting to find them. I found them in the last place you would look for them.
I have recently received a box of plants from the U.S.with the word "plants" right on the label. I suppose you just have to take a chance. No phyto certificate. I have also received some seeds from the U.S. with no problem.
I have had fish (live, Bettas) from the US shipped here. Customs always a hassle. Much easier to cross the border and do a pick up at letterboxes.com or similar.
Two options
1 chance it (for one cutting i would)
2 Go the official way which is that the recipient in Canada has to fill out and send an application for importing plants available here : http://www.inspection.gc.ca/english/toc/fore.shtml
Cost is depending on use but usually 35 CDN. Once approved you'll be advised about the requirements for import e.g phytosanytary cert.
