Avocado - Secondo (A) ®

$59.00 ($59.00-$79.00 choose a size)

Superior flavour, with smooth, creamy flesh and pear-shaped, green-skinned, fruits that are textured like hass. A vigorous variety that commences fruiting in its 2nd year. Self pollinating. H Jul - Dec This is a local selection with Hass and Sharwill as parents that was selected by Daleys and is proving an excellent backyard variety as well as being our nursery favourite.

Mulberry - White Shahtoot

$49.00 ($29.00-$129.00 choose a size)

Large, sweet fruit can reach up to 10cm in length. Delicious eaten fresh but can also be sundried and eaten as a sweet. Medium sized, spreading tree with a weeping habit, excellent shade tree. Birds love them too so make sure you cover them if you don't want to share. You can also get multiple crops by pruning immediately after your first crop.

Strawberry Tree

$34.00

A small tree producing sweet red berries, native to the Mediterranean. The fruit can take one year to develop after flowering, so can provide a pretty display when flowering and fruiting at the same time. Flowers are scented. Evergreen, cold tolerant, suited to alkaline and neutral soils and also at home in a maritime position. Prefers to have rich, well drained soils and shelter from dry wind for optimal establishment. Fruit can be eaten fresh or used for preserving.

Olive - Arbequina

$29.00 ($19.75-$149.00 choose a size)

Self fertile. Low chill. Origin: Spain. Small fruit, table olive pickled green. Early harvest. Commercial oil producer.Frost, coastal conditions and salinity tolerant. Cold hardy. Grows well from Cairns to Tasmania. Medium vigor and compact shape makes it ideal for backyards. Performs well in warm climates. Suited to pots and hedges.

Santol

$29.00 ($19.90-$29.00 choose a size)

The divided fruit segments can be consumed raw or as in India, eaten with spices. They are pleasantly subacid with good flavour. The flesh is usually sucked off the seeds as the pulp clings firmly to them. Take care not to swallow the slippery seeds. By removing the seeds it makes a tasty jam or jelly. There are two forms of the Santol the red and the yellow, both have large round textured yellow fruit with a very thick velvety skin. The tree itself is very elegant in appearance with large lime to deep green leaves and offering occasional contrasting red leaves. In its native setting it is a large tree that will buttress with age, it has low growing branches and makes an excellent street or shade tree. Young plants are frost sensitive and will require protection from cold, however once established they can handle a light brief frost.

Passionfruit - Sweet Granadilla

$27.00 ($19.75-$27.00 choose a size)

Regarded as the best tasting passionfruit in the world. The hard-shelled orange-yellow fruit is of excellent quality and has a white aromatic pulp. Production begins in 2 to 3 years. The vine is easily recognised by its heart shaped leaves. Prefers sheltered conditions. Frost tender when young.

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
