Travel to Canadian Maritimes with house plants

My wife and I will be traveling to the Maritimes in Sept. She likes to travel with 3-4 house plants. All were bought in the US. Are there restrictions on taking house plants into Canada and the back to the US?

To be absolutely sure, get in touch with border officials on both sides.

Here's a link within Canada

What Can I Bring Into Canada in Terms Of Food, Plant, Animal and Related Products? - Food - Canadian Food Inspection Agency

We've been back and forth across the borders in the RV more times than we can count, and never asked about transporting plants, but I've seen it become an issue if you were travelling by plane....of course they'd see you were trying to take plants with air travel.

I think you'll find that you cannot transport any kind of soil across the border.

Buy some new ones once you cross and give them away before you return. Im sure someone at the last rv park you stay at would like them.
