David K, your logic makes no sense....once again.

Yes Zac, and if you like your health care plan, you can keep it... Oh, and the average family will pay $2000 LESS a year for their insurance!

Why not just buy what's locally available? Please think twice before bringing your plants across the border.
Here are just a few examples of devastating affects to commercial crops of "imported" insects:

Yes danaeb I have a small nursery Organic so I don't use pesticides or herbs, and bugs make my days frustrating, believe me I will just pick up a few
cactus plants when i'm there after all i'm in BAJA
glad I don't have these yet the Asian citrus psyllid |
The Asian citrus psyllid has shown up in Yuma Az, and Rio San Luis, Mexico- it is on the way!! |
I think it's even further south now and is one of the reasons that the price of limes has gone up so much in Mexico as well as the states.

the economy and there would be death squads

I'll look into the phyto certificates. I don't want to bring in bugs, and don't mind a reasonable cost to ensure that for certain plants that aren't
available in Baja.

we used to take just enough "plants" to get us to Calafia after work, surf our nuts off, eat tacos in rosarito and be back to the border by 9pm.
we'd stop in the center divider going north at coronado ave and grab the bag with the rest of the "plants" on our way back to point loma.
this was the mid 80's..... sorry if this doesn't help!
