After checking out your links, these words still confused me under the heading Prohibitions... "plants and parts thereof"...as far as my thinking goes seeds would be "parts thereof"...SO...I made the necessary phone calls...

According to Andre at customs/imports/agriculture of Jamaica he said in NO uncertain terms are you allowed to bring in plant seeds without the required permits/import licensing etc....
Thank You, Bnewb, I guess the answers to this question depend on who one talks to. As I said, I've mailed them and they arrived with no problem, so that's strange.
I will not bring seeds any more -- I suppose I will mail them instead
I am full of regret for starting this post at all -- My apologies to everyone.
My intention was only to add lightweight gift ideas to my list.
