Plants Subject to 2014 NPPA Review
Several plant species considered for prohibition from sale in the 2012 NPPA List review were held over for review in 2014.
These are:
- Banksia integrifolia
- Cornus capitata
- Jasminum polyanthum – Jasmine
- Rhaphiolepis umbellata
Another will be reviewed in 2021
- Archontophoenix cunninghamii – bungalow palm
All drew considerable debate and the NPPA Steering group determined more work was need prior to making a decision.
However, we also agreed that industry should be informed of the possibility of these species be prohibited from sale from 2014 and 2021 as appropriate.
An NPPA information sheet is available for download, and I endorse the phrase that growers should “prepare for any potential change” – these species may be banned from production and sale.
