Yeah, pretty much.

I read something somewhere about concerns of displacement or disruption of native species.



You're so welcome, Sharon. Smiling

Congratulations, Winners!

Wonderful video. That little guy gets better with every drawing.

I've mailed seeds to Canada too, no problem If you don't tell anyone what's in the envelope, how would they know? I've traded with people in Canada, Australia, France, U.K., Belgium... never any problem, never filled out a customs form. Shrug!

I'm sure with small quantities, it's not a problem. Probably a good idea to go ahead and do the customs form with this quantity, tho! Smiling
Confidence is that feeling you have right before you do something really stupid.

Yes, that is what I was worried about. It would have been a shame for all those seeds to be confiscated.
