Question We are moving to Las Cruces from Milwaukee by car soon. Are there restrictions on bringing in a few house plants, like an African violet and a couple of small Christmas cactus plants?
Answer Hi Susan,
I don't know of any interstate restrictions about transporting houseplants across state lines, except maybe for California. I had a neighbor in Albuquerque with African violets and we had purchased more than one Christmas cacti throughout the years so I'd not worry about it. I hope they survive the cross-country trip.
