New Video to Mesa Garden Mama Chanel!!

We have a new video up to the Mesa Garden Mama Chanel today!

Did you know that we have 2 chanels on YouTube?!! One is primarily plants and things that pertain to the Nursery side of our life. The Mesa Garden Mama Chanel is more about our life here and things that may no primarily be just plants. Of Course you will see plants but also get a glimps into our every day lives. Today we encounter a few of the creatures we meet mostlt in the Spring and Summer here in the desert of New Mexico. We had a Friendly Hognose that was on the property most of the summer. We also often see whiptales every year.

Devastating News!

We have learned today from the US Department of Agriculture that as of 2/23/2023, Conophytum are now on the CITES III list and we cannot export seeds without a CITES permit. However you will need a permit that costs $100 and you will need a Phytosanitary which costs $76.00. Our shipping cost is $16.00. So all of the needed things to ship them out of the US will now potentially cost $200.00.

We do not carry CITES permits at this time and the list of reasons why we do not is long and difficult. I am thinking we will make a video soon on this topic.

We are pretty floored but not surprised due to the poaching situation in South Africa that has been an issue for several years now.

Please email if you are outside of the US and have any further questions at this time.
