Hi Kevin
We can buy plants here also I have brought them back from Melbourne also.
Quarentine restritions are not to bad they are changeing them so it will be harder to get plants into the state.
Most of my plants come from N.S.W and Vic.
I think what Quarentine are trying to stop is orchids comeing into the state via the Spirit Of Tasmania.
I hope this explanes thing a bit for you
ps---nice to meet you Kevin
