Orange Berry

$17.90 ($14.75-$29.00 choose a size)

Native to rainforest and vine thickets in tropical Australia to as far south as Bundaberg and spread into Asia this is an attractive small tree with tasty berries. Tiny white fragrant flowers are followed by small orange to pink juicy fruits that are sweet and honey flavoured with resinous overtones. Obviously related to the citrus family the foliage is glossy and aromatic. Perfect for use in a mixed screen or bush food garden the orange berry is also a host plant for the swallow tailed butterfly when the plant is young. Fruits make a delicious jam that taste similar to candied honey.

Loquat - Nagasakiwase

$44.00 ($44.00-$79.00 choose a size)

The best Japanese variety so far, it has deep orange flesh, high flesh/seed ratio and very sweet flavour. Earliest variety to ripen. Thinning fruit will enhance fruit size. The Nagasakiwase often has 2 crops a year in the subtropics. The first crop in April / May then again in August. We have found by cincturing in summer, the August crop has a much larger crop and better fruit size.

Kangaroo Apple

Fruits generously for a long period over Summer/Autumn but seedlings are prolific after fruiting so care should be taken not to let it invade. Very attractive and quick growing.

Kangaroo Apple

I grew 2 from tubes for the first time in the last blazing summer. Super fast growth to about 3m but get very leggy. Fruited heavily in first season - now have copious fruit again. Taste between citrus and tomato. Not ripe until nearly red.
