Pistachio - Sirora - Female
$79.00 ($79.00-$79.00 choose a size)
High yielding female tree, pair with a male for pollination. Grows to be a small tree or shrub. Best suited to areas with cold winters and hot dry summers, requiring 1000 hours below 7.5 degrees in the winter. Summer and autumn need to be dry to prevent fungal problems. Pistachios are dioecious meaning male and females flowers are produced on separate trees, one of each will be required for fruit set. Spreading habit, wider than it is tall. Pistachios tend toward biennial cropping, meaning they alternately bear lots of nuts one year, then very little the following year

Pine Nut
$31.95 ($19.75-$99.00 choose a size)
An attractive large pine tree that bears cones of edible nuts. These are considered a delicacy in Mediterranean style cooking, due to their sweet, buttery flavour. Trees can be expected to start producing cones from about year 6. But can take longer. Each cone holds about 50 nuts and 100 kg of cones holds about 20 kg of nuts. Grows best in dry cooler areas with excellent drainage. Trees can set nuts on their own, but cones may be poorly filled. Plant two or more to improve nut set.
Walnut - Black
$29.00 ($19.00-$59.00 choose a size)
Native to Eastern North America, where it is highly prized for its high quality timber. The edible nut is more difficult to extract than the English Walnut. Used as rootstock because of its hardiness.

Traditional variety for coastal areas, due to its humidity tolerance and good resistance to powdery mildew. Mid to late season crop of medium round grapes. Excellent flavour and does have seeds. Isabella Black can also tolerate summer heat
