In the past year, I've had two shipments returned from Italy, both 
from Bologna. They return them to the sender with a form which I 
can't read because, of course, it's in Italian. In neither case did 
they notify my customer and since the packages came back by 
sea, it took almost a year before I got them back. I suggest that if 
you want to purchase seeds from outside the EU that you have 
them sent to someone in another country.
