Bunnings and other nurseries face criticism for selling invasive plant species deemed as threats to local ecosystems and agriculture.

Australian major nursery Bunnings and others are under fire for selling invasive plant species, including gazania and English ivy, which have been classified as invasive weeds by the government. Experts warn these plants pose a significant threat to local ecosystems and agriculture, costing the industry $4.3 billion annually. Critics argue that although Bunnings claims to adhere to biosecurity regulations, stronger measures are needed.
