One of the only other members of the cannabacaea family. The other side of the family appears to grow well in hydro setups :) .

the jovial monk gets rhizomes in every year in the cooler months - he's an adelaide brew store.
If you google it there's a website and a forum too!

I got mine from Grumpy's

I know they are also available from Grain and Grape.

Have you tried TWOC to see if they can get them for you?

I can't speak for WA rules, but if it helps when mine were shipped there was no soil attached, they were packed in damp cotton wool and in a plastic bag.

I believe the rhizomes all come from tassie where the quarantine is pretty strict as well.

good luck. :)
