Pistachio - Blue Male
$89.00 ($79.00-$89.00 choose a size)
Male pistachio, pollinator for Females. Blue will come into production earlier than other males. One male will pollinate up to 15 females.
Pistachio - Kerman Female
$89.00
The female Kerman Pistachio is popular in commercial production and has good flavour with a nice green colour to the kernal. Pistachio trees are 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

Mango - Kwan
$54.00
Similar to the Nam doc mai, but twice the size. It has elongated fruit of a consistent light yellow and good mango flavour. This variety has good disease tolerance of Anthracnose and is generally a heavy cropper. Performs very well in south eastern Qld and the northern coast of NSW. As with all mangoes, flowering needs to coincide with a good period free of rain as the flowers will not set unless humidity is low.
