Nursery Inspection
For more information,
e-mail us or call (360) 902-1874.
The Nursery Inspection program provides regulatory inspection of licensed
retail and
wholesale nurseries to ensure that consumers and the nursery industry
are provided healthy, pest-free and disease-free plant materials. Inspectors
enforce
quarantines to prevent pest introduction at more than 6,000 licensed
nurseries in Washington.
Washington's
notification rule requires any nursery receiving tree and shrub nursery
stock from outside the state to notify WSDA within 48 hours of receipt. WSDA
has created a
prohibited plant list to make sure plants that are known to be invasive
and detrimental to the state's natural resources are not sold in our state.
The Nursery Inspection program also enforces
licensing requirements for nursery businesses and offers assistance to
new nursery businesses in meeting regulatory requirements. To perform an
