Dear Jean,

I'm very sorry that your seeds were taken by Customs. Things are
changing and we have to see what we can do. I know it is not easy for us
to get Phyto for seeds in the Netherlands, but maybe we can arrange
something (I do not know). Up till now we did not have many problems
sending seeds to USA, but that is to Botanic Gardens and maybe that is
different. We can check with other societies, like AGS, what they do to
avoid problems, I suppose they can not send Phyto aether.

For all other USA members, please keep me informed about arrival of the
seeds (e.j.gouda at bio.uu.nl). All orders were sent last week.

Best,
Eric
