Fig - Celeste

$49.00 ($49.00-$49.00 choose a size)

Also known as sugar fig, the pastel pink flesh has a rich, honey sweet flavour and a speckled appearance. The smooth skin is light brown to violet and the fruit is a classic fig shape with a tapering neck and a squat bottom. Its closed eye prevents fruit rot from moisture or insects which are unable to enter the fruit. When fully ripe and ready to pick the fruit will begin to droop and the skin may split. A cold hardy fig, so will have a longer period of dormancy than other figs

Marula

Marula stones are very easily sprouted on their intended growing sites by completely enclosing them in fresh manure: that from cattle is preferred, but horse, rabbit, pig and chicken will suffice. Marula trees are very frost tender.

Marula

These love the heat. A friend has them in Geraldton WA. They are a pretty tree with blueish grey folage and grey bark. Ideal for Hot Dry sub/Tropical zones with minimal to no frost
