Import Tips
• Declare exact quantity of carnation stems; corsage wiring doesn't affect flower classification but requires accessory disclosure
• Use ISPM-15 compliant crates for air shipment to prevent wood pest issues common with flower imports
• Avoid packing with fruits/vegetables to prevent ethylene gas damage causing premature wilting
