Excellent news, and a considerable relief that there was no Australian Customs inspection.

Mine arrived safe and sound to NH, USA home. APHIS did take 2 of the envelopes out. One marked erythronium sp., the other lilium sp. Not sure what they were because neither of them appeared on my order.

I know why they pulled the erythronium. They didn't want the one endangered one slipping through. Interesting little plant but not something I'd bother with. I went through this once before and somebody from APHIS was nice enough to give an explanation along with the usual paperwork.

https://www.dnr.state.mn.us/rsg/profile.html?action=elementDetail&selectedElement=PMLIL0U0D0

The lily I probably will never figure out. Too many of them and half the APHIS and USDA pages seem to be not working or removed. APHIS just doesn't like that "sp." designation. They want more. Things like trillium erectum hybrids mixed came through fine.

I'm not complaining.  Just letting others know so they don't waste seeds. I'm tickled every time with my seeds.
