SeedEx 2003

[lesley cox]

Hello Eric, Yes, Paul is right about the seed import conditions into New
Zealand. They will be destroyed out of hand, if no names on the packets. If
non-permitted names are on the packets, we do have some options, but no
names - NO SEEDS.

Lesley in Dunedin, New Zealand - snow on the surrounding hills. Winter at
last.
