Well... I probably should know the answer to this. But I don't. I
have a customer who would like to take a hybrid paph (Maudiae type) back
to his father in Argentina (from the US). I know that paph species are
CITES appendix 1, and I wouldn't even dream of letting him try it.
Hybrids probably shouldn't be appendix I (but maybe are). I don't want
to sell him the plant if he is going to get in trouble for it.

So, if he takes a plant in his carry on luggage, what would the legal
requirements be? Does a single hybrid paph require import/export
paperwork, or can it go as a non-regulated houseplant? If so, it should
be packed bare-root, I presume?

Thoughts?
