If you order normally across the border, yes, you do. However, Chin taught me a cool trick that you can ship them to a mail slot jus on the US side of the border and you drive down to pick them up. There is andirective you can quote (print it and take it with you to make you life easier) that allows you to bring up to 50 houseplants across the border with you. Most of the time this works just fine unless you come across a border guard with a bug up their ass and they'll argue with you on it. Sometimes the sticking point is if the plants have soil; they don't want pests entering the country... Luckily cuttings don't often have dirt with them, so it's not usually an issue. Badabing, don't have to pay phytocert fees!

How's everybody's plumeria rooting? All six of my plumerias have sprouted huge leaves and are growing mad.
