The Plant Board regulates two broad
ranges of plants; the outdoor nursery stock and garden vegetable
plants.
Nursery stock means any plant material
which will survive our Arkansas winters outside ie., roses,
azaleas, shrubs, fruit trees, shade trees, etc.
Vegetable plants - are wheat you
would imagine your vegetable garden plot to be ie., cole crops,
cucurbits, tomatos, peppers, onions, strawberry plants,
etc. The exemption to the rule would be non-edible/ornamental
vegetables and all herb plants commonly used for cooking.
Other types of plant materials
which DO NOT fall under our regulations are items such
as tropical plants(greenhouse or indoor plants) and flowering
annual bedding plants ie.,petunias, marigolds, etc.
