Michelia Alba - Pak Lan

$99.00

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.

Custard Apple - Paxton Prolific

$89.00 ($89.00-$99.00 choose a size)

A PBR selection of the popular Pinks Mammoth variety. It has a low seed count and excellent natural fruit set. This means that, unlike some other varieties, there is no need to laboriously hand pollinate each bloom to achieve a good harvest. Unpruned custard apples grow into very large trees. With dedicated, twice yearly pruning it is possible to restrict tree height and spread to 3-4m. This variety is subject to Plant Breeder Rights (PBR).The foliage is delicate on young trees, and our potted plants are known for their older leaves to turn yellow and drop during transport to conserve energy. This is not a problem long term. With care and acclimatisation they will bounce back
  Special  

Dragon Fruit - Aztec Gem

$29.00 ($24.00-$29.00 choose a size)

Aztec Gem is a very deep purple fleshed dragon fruit and tastes sweet and fruity. A moderate grower, Aztec Gem is self pollinating, if you are wanting more fruit you can hand pollinate. They flower at night and into the morning. The presence of moths will enhance pollination. Weight of fruit can be 300-400g.

Dragon Fruit - Delight

Still dormant at the moment but still green. Looking forward to seeing it grow. Have seen others in our area so know they should grow here. Chose this plant because one day would like to see one of these flowers up close and take photos. They sell fruit in shops but i have only ever seen pictures of the flowers.
