I am about to import a plant from the USA and have sorted shipping etc. It
will have the relevant plant US permissions, however, the exporter says:-
"You'll need an import permit from DEFRA .You have to live near the major
international airport, where you can get plant(s) inspected or hire a
broker, who can do everything for you."

Unless it's very simple I need a broker.
Any help much appreciated

People to ask may be Hosta and Hemerocallis collections in the National
