Plants held by county- curious why.
This is the first time this has ever happened to me, and I
am wondering if anyone might have an insight into why it happened. Placed an order through a very reputable company. New world orchid, if anyone is curious. He is out of Michigan. He goes to the shows in Japan every year and brings stuff back. I have ordered through him many times. I figure, he had to have a permit to bring them in the country... and he does. So I get a letter today from my counties agriculture weights and measures department saying they have seized the plants, for violation of CCR 6421. "Lacks marking and statement of certificate of contents and growing origin." I am in California. Why do they want growing origin if it is going from one state to the next? He is faxing them phyto, and cites... but again.... I have bought from him dozens of times and I don't quite get it. There has never been a problem before. I guess I am wondering if there is some new law I should know about. I occasionally order stuff from Equagenera, and have them ship from the shows. It seems like a huge hassle to ask every company I buy from to make sure the include cites. Thanks Joe |
