Gum Flat Fruit Trees (Popular)
Gum Flat Fruit Trees and the most popular plants Australians buy for mail order. With fruit trees you should consider climate suitability.
Dwarf Mulberry - Red Shahtoot
$49.00 ($19.75-$99.00 choose a size)
Much more compact in growth habit than the King White Shahtoot. These delicious sweet fruits can reach 10cm in length. Ideal for back yards and we consider it a must have fruit tree for the back yard. The best way to eat mulberries is fresh from the tree. If some should make it to the kitchen bench they make excellent pies, jams, wines and sauces. Multiple crops are possible by pruning directly after your first crop. Suitable for most regions of Australia, although it can be susceptible to damage from late frosts. The red shahtoot is ideal for growing in pots and containers due to it small growing habit and it is ideal for school gardens as it does not produce fruits that stain and the sweet fruits are very appealing to children. This variety is best suited to warm subtropical climates and does not perform well in temperate climate where it tends to drop their fruit.
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.
Dwarf Mandarin - Emperor
$46.95
The fruit has a pale orange skin that is inclined to be puffy. Excellent flavour and loose skin that is very easy to peel. Most popular mid season variety. The fruit can be prone to drying if harvest is delayed. Flying Dragon modifies the top growth making this a dwarf plant that is ideal to use planted out or as a pot specimen. Trees will grow to about half the normal citrus size. Flying Dragon rootstock also adds cold hardiness and grows well in heavier soils, like Trifoliatia rootstock.

Rootstock used for grafting pecan varieties onto. Strong growing seedling, also useful as a hardy shade tree and will produce nuts in 8-10years. Riverside has shown more salt tolerance than Apache rootstock for marginal areas and where bore water is in use. Inquire for Wholesale Price - 50+
