Japan when I asked the possibility of legal import of flasks of Phragmipedium.
kovachii from Peru. I have translated into English since
the reply was written in Japanese.
The reply is as follows.
Phragmipedium. kovachii is classified by INRENA
into "CR" showing the most endangered species in Peru.

Peru is still forbidden.
