Why it’s listed
The kauri dieback aseptic-handling protocol is [[directory|the directory]]-relevant detail. Kauri ([[kauri|Agathis australis]]) — Aotearoa’s iconic giant conifer — is dying across the Auckland and Northland ranges from a Phytophthora pathogen spread by soil movement. Nurseries that don’t follow biosecurity protocols actively spread the disease through every plant they distribute. Signature Plants’ explicit aseptic-technique commitment is the table-stakes filter for working with the Waitākere flora at all, and one of the reasons regional restoration projects can trust the wholesale supply.
