However, I do think they are supposed to be accompanied with a phytosanitary certificate and/or nematode certificate to some states (such as California). However, when I received my various orders from them there was no such documentation so I'm not sure if the rules are different for TC plants than I remember.
Everything I order from Wellspring has a sticker on the side of the box for the agriculture department.

The whole Citrus thing is bogus!! I personal believe it is just another way to stop us from making our own food. They came through my neighborhood and Cut down / kill ever citrus tree they found. I was told my tree had can cor when it did not show any signs of this and was only a year old. Ever tree I seen them take down did not show any signs of what they claimed was wrong with the tree. It is all a scam to help the citrus industry make more money!! That is just what I personal believe based on what I seen them cut down. Its not like they only tried to take sick tress, they took everything they could find, new, old, in great shape or not. They took out a tree down the street that was AWESOME! The guy dave gave all of us oranges, perfect looking ones and great tasting. They took his tree and NOTHING was wrong with it, other then the fact Dave has not brought an orange in 6 years.
