Thanks everyone for your help with the permit questions. In the meantime I also called the import permit office (always a good idea to do first) and they informed me that I need what they consider to be the 'general permit' which is #587. Someone mentioned the possibility that as the parent plants may not originally have come from the country of origin, (also bringing up a reference to kovachii, will be happy if I never hear that name again) then a 'cites' endangered etc. permit was necessary. I must mention again that I am looking to get a flask or so of Phalaenopsis species. None are appendix 1, and since the parent plants are Malaysian, and the flasks are from Malaysia, I think the plants are safely still in their country of origin. thanks again, charles -- Charles Ufford Calen the Border Collie CGC - now in Heaven Oriskany, NY USA IPA, Central NY and Southern Tier Orchid Societies [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.paphiopedilum.net Http://www.geocities.com/charlesufford
