Caladium Tuberous Roots from China

Caladium tuberous roots in growth are live plants supplied by florists or nursery gardeners for ornamental planting in shaded beds or containers. They are in growth at the time of importation, which places them under the 'in growth or in flower' category of heading 06.01. They are not chicory plants or roots, nor tuberous roots of cannas, dahlias, or paeonias, so they fall under the 'Other' tariff item 0601.20.90.
