Attention Seed Buyers from outside Canada

Some countries require that phytosanitary certificate  accompany seeds entering their jurisdiction. You can check with your country's Plant Import Department regarding tree seed import regulations.

Due to Customs and Shipping difficulties we can no longer ship seeds to the UNITED STATES

We can obtain phytosanitary certificates but there is a charge of $35. One certificate can cover multiple species ordered.
Search for Phytosanitary Certificate under "What are you looking for?"

NO PHYTOSANITARY CERTIFICATE IS REQUIRED FOR SEEDS SHIPPED WITHIN CANADA
