Dormant Bulbs, Tubers, Corms, Crowns & Rhizomes

U.S. imports of dormant bulbs, tubers, corms, crowns & rhizomes (HS 060110) totaled $4.8M in April 2026, traded with 16 countries.

Last updated: April 2026 data

Dormant planting stock — tulips, hyacinths, lilies, narcissus, crocus, iris, gladiolus, and tuberous begonias — enters the US under USDA APHIS phytosanitary controls, with each genus assigned its own 10-digit tariff line to facilitate pest-risk targeting. The Netherlands dominates supply of this heading, reflecting that country's centuries-old bulb-breeding and export infrastructure; Peru and Israel are also significant sources. Importers should plan around seasonal harvest windows, as dormancy status at time of shipment is a classification condition, and APHIS may require specific treatments or certifications depending on genus and origin.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does dormancy status affect how bulbs are classified at the 10-digit level?

Yes — dormancy is a condition of heading 0601.10 itself. Bulbs shipped while actively growing or in flower fall under heading 0601.20 instead. Customs may request phytosanitary certificates or inspection records to confirm dormancy, and misclassification between the two headings can result in delays or redelivery.

What phytosanitary requirements apply to imported flower bulbs from the Netherlands?

All imported bulbs require a phytosanitary certificate from the country of origin and are subject to USDA APHIS inspection at the port of entry. The Netherlands, as the dominant supplier, ships under well-established bilateral protocols, but specific pest interception histories for certain genera (e.g., lily bulbs) can trigger additional treatment requirements. Consult a licensed customs broker or APHIS for current admissibility conditions.
