You're not allowed to bring plants of any kind into the country as bugs could be living on them - you'll have to buy some here.

Ha ha...not sure your plants would survive the shipping trip anyway!

Don't despair, I've seen Aloe plants growing wild out here! Perfect for sunburn and you don't even have to pay for it!

Karen, It's sad giving away your house plants, try to find someone who will love and look after them. You can buy Aloe Vera plants at the nurseries/garden centres in Oz, if you can't find any growing wiild(I haven't - it's a South African plant) All the best, Acacia
