In tropical climates it can be grown as a marginal plant in dams and ponds, used as a bedding plant in tropical landscaping.

$37.00 ($37.00-$69.00 choose a size)

Jambolan Plum

$49.00 ($49.00-$99.00 choose a size)

Frost sensitive when young but once established is hardy to most conditions. It can tolerate strong winds and can be used as a windbreak tree. It can also tolerate prolonged flooding and dry periods. It is limited to fruit production in tropical regions in elevations from sea level to 600m above sea level. Given such conditions it fruits prolifically. The fruit can be eaten fresh or used in making Pies, Sauces, Jams and Juices. While native to India, Burma and Ceylon, it is now widespread across much of Asia and is also very popular in much of South America. Carries many common names including Java plum, Portuguese plum, Malabar plum, Black plum, Purple plum, Damson plum and Indian blackberry. It is a fast growing very attractive tree highly esteemed by Buddhists throughout Asia and often planted near Hindu temples. Weed Warning: Jambolan plum is naturalized across Hawaii and has weed potential in subtropical and tropical regions in Australia, due to seed dispersal by birds.

Exclusion Net - 6m x 6m

$54.00 ($54.00-$59.00 choose a size)

This strong net is ideal for covering most fruit trees and vegetable gardens. It is also called Bee netting, as it is used to exclude Bees from pollinating fruit trees that need to be kept seedless. It is UV stabilised and it will last years if stored after each seasons fruit protection. It is a 50gsm weave. This net can easily be cut into smaller nets if desired. Width is 6m and can also cut to a specified length in multiples of 6m only: eg 6x12m, or 6x18m up to a maximum of 6x30m. We highly recommended this for the exclusion of insects, birds and especially Fruit Fly. Fruit Fly females are large being 8mm long and sting fruit to lay their eggs only a few weeks before ripening. They shouldn't be confused with the smaller 'vinegar fly' which only attacks overripe and fallen fruit and are very hard to exclude even with 2mm netting.

Davidsons Plum - Smooth

D. johnsonni - Unfortunately, it's probably just the gardener, but I have had little luck trying to grow these. I have a couple from many years ago that are still only 30cm high and one is just starting to flower! The last couple I got died despite following directions to the letter for their propagation. D. jerseyana seem to grow as easily as weeds in the same area, so it remains a mystery to me. I really want to get these endangered species established to compliment the other two species.

Davidsons Plum - Smooth

Went well in pot in half shade sun. Almost carked it in spot a year after planting. The sun is fierce now. I am going to cincture and removed all fruit. Mulched & built up soil / humus plus more water. Better even after 43 deg heat Jan 2017 Hunter coastal
