IMPORTANT INFORMATION

CITES
The convention for international trade in
endangered species was originally and
commendably set up to prevent the illegal trade
in endangered species of animals.
Plants and especially orchids were included
hurriedly, and possibly without to much rational
thinking, the result is that it is is now
illegal to import orchids without the proper
CITES documentation, whilst this may stop plants
from being collected from their habitat in the
wild, it is doubtful that it protects them
satisfactorily, and certainly makes it illegal
for nurseries to mass produce them, which would
probably reduce the illegal demand for wild
collected plants, thus securing their
continuance in two different ways, especially in
areas of deforestation.
The CITES rule precludes the movement of any
orchid from one country to another without a
permit, even nursery grown hybrids,
European Union members are considered to be
individual states of one country
