Olympic medal winners get presented with flowers as well as their medal. ?

Question

Can the Aussies bring these flowers back to Australia or will they have problems with quarantine?

Answer 1

i don't know but what i'm amazed about is the Americans. they just dominated on every level. jeez.............

Answer 2

No, not likely.

At least into Tasmania there are strict prohibitions.

It is a nice gesture that only last a few days.

Transporting them to many parts of the world may indeed require that they be placed in quarantine to assure that there are no nasty little stowaways.  Insects and invasive plants can play havoc on isolated island ecosystems.  

Answer 3

Yeah it's an award and a precious one.

Answer 4

Perhaps they shouldn't give flowers. Maybe give an Olympic Souvenir as they can last long and what more let the sportsman remember where he/she played the Olympics and that victorious moment.  

Answer 5

NO CLUE..

Answer 6

kangaroos suck

Answer 7

They might be fake, but at least we (Aussies) presented people with native flowers... But if they're real, they wouldn't live for long anyway, they're cut flowers...

Answer 8

They can bring them back, but they might die before the olympics are over. I mean dude were not in america or anything...... They may be fake?

Answer 9

the flowers would probably die in the smog straight away anyway
