Import Tips
• Include supplier certificates verifying hybrid status and disease-free certification to expedite USDA inspections
• Ship during off-season (fall/winter) to maintain dormancy; summer shipments risk sprouting and duty reclassification
• Document end-use as 'ornamental planting only' to prevent scrutiny under agricultural commodity rules
