Here's the USDA language: Tomato and pepper seed from all countries requires testing for virus and viroid diseases. These seeds must be accompanied by a phytosanitary certificate from the country of origin with the additional declaration that says “the seeds have been tested for (name of virus/viroid) of quarantine significance prior to entry into the United States or that the seeds are produced in a country in which these (name of virus/viroid) are not known to occur.” Important: Small quantities of tomato and pepper seeds are not eligible for import under a PPQ 587 permit for Small Lots of Seed. |

Hmm. I wasn't asked for the permit so didn't send a copy, nor thought to look. Oh well. Let's see if the seeds show up. That is a good point about viruses and viroids though... |

I have ordered seeds a few times from organicseeds.top. They have great service and I like to support anything having to do with agriculture from this war torn country. I have grown varieties from them and so far they have been true.

My seeds arrived today--took about four weeks, but everything was there, plus some "gift" extras.
