Tomatoville® Gardening Forums - View Single Post - Shipping seeds to Hawaii from the continental US question

I am not sure where to post this, but a friend wants me to ship her some seeds from Mexican Sunflowers.

She lives in Hawaii.

I live in Mississippi.

I have been growing Mexican Sunflowers in a flower bed for 2 or 3 years and they produce lots of seeds.

What obstacles will I run into regarding shipping seeds to her?

Is the Post Office the way to do it or would UPS be better.

I fear that there are some obscure Dept. of Agriculture regulations or something.

Thanks.
