Plum - Gulf Ruby

$49.00

Juicy, yellow flesh, clingstone, large size if properly thinned, attractive red skin blush, resistant to bacterial spot. Very low chill 275 hrs. Pollinator Gulf Gold

Fig - Blue Provence

$49.00 ($49.00-$79.00 choose a size)

The Fig - Blue Provence or Ficus carica is suited to subtropical environments as well as warm and cold temperate regions. The skin is bluish in colour and bears later in the season. Known for being sweeter than other fig varieties.

Dwarf Apple - Tropical Anna

$49.00 ($49.00-$79.00 choose a size)

Delicious crunchy apples similar to their cold climate cousins, Red Delicious, but only require a low amount of chill. On a semi dwarfing rootstock they are ideal for backyard plantings and container specimens. Anna will set some fruit on its own, an added bonus for small areas. Pollinate with Dorsett Golden or Tropic Sweet for greater fruit set. An apple best eaten fresh off the tree as they are not a storing apple.

Wampee - Guy Sam

$39.00 ($39.00-$79.00 choose a size)

This grafted variety has a sweet tangy aromatic flavour. Wampees are a handsome foliage evergreen tree grown for Summer ripe fruit with grape like flesh that hang in bunches. When grown on its own the fruit is seedless. Excellent tree for the subtropics and can be kept under 3 metres with pruning.

Dwarf Plum Gulf Gold Tree (G)

$39.00 ($29.00-$79.00 choose a size)

This golden plum is firm with excellent flavour & texture and a small seed. 350 hours chill. This dwarf plum is an ideal backyard variety and perfect for pots. An excellent all-round variety with the added bonus that it doesn't seem to be attractive to fruit fly as much as other stonefruit. Partially self pollinating but benefits from pollination with Gulf Ruby. Attractive in spring when it is smothered in white blossoms.

Tea Tree - Lemon Scented

$4.90 ($4.90-$18.75 choose a size)

A small tree with fine, green, lemon scented foliage used for teas and abundant white flowers in early summer, attracting Native and European bees. Excellent screen, windbreak and hedge, responds to pruning beautifully . Leaves and stems contain essential oils used in candle and soap making.
