Hi Lloyd Sydney mail centre are pretty strict, I know Aqis has changed it's name, so maybe they are getting tougher. I have a friend I'n quarantine & he just shakes his head About them sometimes ! This is the first time this has happened, in hundreds of orders but they open about 50% of my packages. They ceased some Worsleya recently because I didn't have a special seed import permit for threatened species, That was a bit disappointing ! But serves me right, I should have read the endless pages of government regulations properly.
