That is a high probability-at least the quarantine part. Not sure if if the transaction was via postal mail, but they do have international reg's in regards to plants/soil along with all shipping methods.

Thankyou Richard

in winter we can get down to about -6c a and in sumer we can get as high as 50c, but I don't think you can get any plant matter in or out of Australia. you can't even get any plant matter into western Australia from the rest of Australia!

I've learned a lot from this post 8). I remember seeing the name tagasaste in some permaculture books, but I never looked into it or considered growing it. I am planning for some mini hedgerow plantings around some of our poultry zones. Thinking tagasaste could be a good addition...

@mattstern if you like tagasaste you should look into Moringa tree's, once you have a few Moringa tree's growing at your place you will wonder how you ever survived without them!
