Apple - Tropic Sweet
$46.95
These delicious and crunchy apples only require a low amount of chill to fruit. Very similar to the Jonathon apple in looks and flavour. Earliest fruiting apple, 2 weeks before Anna.
Lemon - Meyer
$37.00 ($37.00-$39.00 choose a size)
The popular Meyer is not a true lemon but likely to be a natural hybrid between a lemon and an orange. The lower acidity and reduced sourness makes it one of the most widely grown home-garden varieties. Very hardy and prolific. The fruits are a deep orange-yellow colour with thin skin and they are very juicy, making them perfect for use in dressings and marinades. The meyer is low in pectin.
Avocado - Hass (A)
$54.00 ($54.00-$79.00 choose a size)
Most popular variety due to both its superior taste and excellent keeping qualities. Medium sized, pear-shaped fruit has an excellent creamy, flesh. The leathery rough dark-purple skin turns to black when ripe. H Aug-Dec. Hass is an A type variety and for good fruit set a B type variety is needed for cross pollination. Suggested varieties to grow alongside a Hass are Shepard, Sharwill, Fuerte, Bacon (if you're in a cooler climate)and Linda. Happy fresh avocado smashing.
Avocado - Fuerte (B)
$54.00 ($54.00-$79.00 choose a size)
Pear shaped fruit, small to medium in size with slightly rough, thin green skin. The flesh is of a buttery texture with excellent flavour. Vigorous spreading tree that bears biennially. Harvest April - June
