Iris Rhizomes in Flower from Japan
Iris rhizomes with flower buds are live plants supplied by florists for display or division. They are in flower 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.
