I am interested in bringing a very large coconut yielding variety of Coconut sapling from Costa Rica. The nursery in ready to send it by courier, however,
I heard there are restrictions in India to receive such parcels.
Can anyone suggest the best way to bring saplings from foreign country for personal use? This is not for any commercial purposes, it is purely for personal use.
Than you.
