They allowed passengers to bring plants BOUGHT ONLY FROM THE US without the required import permit and other paper.
Do you know if this also includes when you buy orchids in the U.S. and return to canada by land?

"If you are importing houseplants from the continental United States as part of your baggage or household
effects, you do not need phytosanitary certificates or import permits."

The text above is from "I Declare, A Guide for Residents of Canada returning to Canada" document, issued by Canada Border Services Agency.

You can read the whole official document at

http://www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca/publicati...sf5056-eng.pdf

Bottom of page 16 and top of page 17 mention particularly about bringing back plants.
The document does not say anything about travel methods (plane or vehicle). I just assume that does not matter.

Those are uniquely beautiful. I bet they could have made the orchid Board calendar. Did you post a picture for that?

Thank you for your comments. Unfortunately I was away on a trip and missed the deadline to post pictures for the calendar. I should not have waited until the last moment. I had some really nice bloomers this year, the sanderiana 'alba' being one of them.

Awesome. Just started this species with some very small success. Nothing this good.
