Tormey Cole, who works directly with The Invasive Plant Council, said there has been recent government concern about invasive plants, and discussion about banning the sale of such plants.
However, Tormey Cole said, placing enforcements on nurseries is not the best way to solve the problem.
" I understand that it's really important to have the nursery industry on board, you can't dictate externally," she said. "It's going to work much better to have them involved in the process."
