Orchid - phalaenopsis, a favorite tropical flower by many. Carl Blume, a Dutch botanist who first discovered orchids at the end of the XVIII century, called them phalaenopsis. Phalaenopsis from Greek is similar to a butterfly. Orchids from afar really resemble bright butterflies crouching on thin twigs of the plant. In nature, phalaenopsis orchids grow in the Philippines, Australia and Southeast Asia. 

Sometimes orchids are called parasites, but in fact it is not. In nature, orchids live on tree trunks, but they use trees only as a support, and do not parasitize them. The roots of phalaenopsis are green because they take part in photosynthesis.

There are hundreds of phalaenopsis varieties, here are some of them: Phalaenopsis Pink, Stuart, Schiller, Philadelphia, Phalaenopsis pleasant, Cleopatra, Golden, Legato and many others.

In Russia, there are strict rules governing the import of plants from abroad. The Border Plant Quarantine Inspection has the task of preventing dangerous pests and plant diseases that can cause damage to agriculture from entering the territory of Russia. There are a number of resolutions of the Government of the Russian Federation that regulate the activities of the inspection,"On the State Plant Quarantine Service in the Russian Federation" of 1992, "Rules for the protection of the territory of the Russian Federation from quarantine pests, plant diseases and weeds" 1996, as well as there are a number of international agreements (signed, among others, by Russia) - members of the International Plant Protection Convention (IPPC).

Employees of the phytosanitary inspection of the city of Vladivostok control the import of plants very strictly, because the consequences that even single violations of quarantine regulations can lead to are very serious. An international phyto-sanitary certificate (phyto) must be issued for the plant. It is issued by the sanitary quarantine control service of the country where the plant was purchased.It should be borne in mind that the certificate is valid only 15 days from the date of registration.

To confirm the country of origin, you will need a certificate of origin (certificate of origin). The names of plants in the accompanying documents must be written in Latin. Purchased plants should not be in the soil (the import of land into Russia is strictly prohibited), and in a special substrate. (if the plant is not cut)

Upon arrival of a batch of orchids at the customs territory of the Russian Federation, you need to contact the phyto-orderlies and get a mark on the passage of control. To do this, a sampling and sampling procedure is carried out. (Sampling is mandatory for plants!).

After sampling, the samples are sent to VNIIKR to obtain a conclusion. This procedure must be done for each batch of goods. If you plan to import orchids into the customs territory of the Russian Federation, it is better to consult with us on this issue beforehand, since any plant cut or with a root system is considered a perishable commodity and it needs to be processed in the shortest possible time so as not to throw your investments later into the trash.
