Title: Bringing plants from Czech Republic into the UK
Post by: Lawrence on February 18, 2016, 08:46:17 PM

I am going to the early spring show in  Prague and would like to bring back plants. Are there any restrictions and do I need any paperwork?

If you could have seen the number of plants brought home by the AGS Ulster Group when they went to the Czech Republic

So many choice plants at the show.

Sadly no flights from Belfast these days
