St Helena (nsw) Fruit Trees and the most popular plants Australians buy for mail order. With fruit trees you should consider climate suitability.
Kakadu Plum
$49.00
Small yellow green plum-like fruits with very high Vitamin C content, can be eaten raw or cooked. Flavour is sour with an astringent aftertaste. Most parts of the tree are used as medicine by traditional custodians. It is a tall slender semi-deciduous tree to 10m with creamy flower spikes in early summer. Known for its olive-sized fruit which ripens in autumn. Traditionally used as a thirst quencher and snack. Widespread over the northern tropical woodlands. It also is used in the seafood industry to improve shelflife of prawns. Fruit also contains oxalic acid so consume in moderation.
Candle Nut
$24.00 ($14.90-$29.00 choose a size)
A north Qld native, this large rainforest tree has a spreading crown of large leaves. The brown fruit envelopes the highly nutritious nuts that are delicious roasted. Commonly used in Indonesian dishes, curry pastes and as a meat tenderiser. The nuts should not be eaten raw as the toxin in the oil can induce nausea and vomiting. The early settlers found that the high oil content of the nuts enabled them to burn with a smoky flame for up to 20 minutes.Weed Warning: This large rainforest tree is a north Qld native, however it is a very vigorous self seeder and can cause concern outside of its local area, producing an abundance of the brown fruit.
Peanut Tree
$4.90 ($4.90-$19.90 choose a size)
This tree produces leathery, boat-shaped pods that ripen throughout summer. They split open to display a beautiful, bright red interior that contains shiny, black, peanut-sized seeds which have a delicious, nutty flavour. It is a fast growing highly ornamental rainforest tree. Indigenous Australians ate the nuts both raw and roasted and used the fibrous bark to make nets.
Noni Fruit
$19.90 ($19.75-$19.90 choose a size)
Medicinally this odd looking, pungent fruit is said to cure everything from stone-fish wounds to digestive upsets to far more serious disease. A concoction from the bark, leaves, roots and fruit can be drunk. When ripe or overripe the skin of the fruit becomes almost translucent and the flesh turns soft to develop an unpleasant odour. The odour has led to nickname of the 'starvation fruit' due to the fact that you would have to be starving to eat it as a fresh fruit. Strictly tropical climate only. Noni will flower and fruit from under one year old with care and the right micro climate. So worth trying in pots.
Lilly Pilly - Riberry
$19.90 ($4.90-$19.90 choose a size)
The small leaved lilly pilly produces masses of red pear shaped fruit. Its handsome purple-red growth makes this lilly pilly one of the favourites as an Edible Hedge. The fruit exhibits a juicy but slightly acidic finish. Which is reminiscent of cinnamon and cloves. It is a very popular ingredient in wild-food dishes.
