@Nyboy thread about him trying to order grapes got me thinking about how some nurseries have restrictions on what states they can ship to. or you can only get certain plants from selected nurseries. sometimes its just a matter of having a phytosanitary certificate from the state the plants are coming from.
i know NH is restricted for certain plants like currants and gooseberries because of the White Pine Blister Rust (fungus) possibly being carried in on untested plants. there are some pond plants that are restricted due to being an invasive species.
Maine and Idaho i know you can't ship in potatoes. Washington state and NY seem to restrict apples and i guess NY also restricts grapes. I won't even say anything about California since they are restrictive on anything they don't approve of without the right permits. Citrus in both Florida and California because the growers are so concerned with some sort of citrus bug.
if anyone else can add other states that restrict certain plants being shipped into them please add to this list. if you know the reason why it is restricted please add that too!
