Raspberry - Tulameen

$19.90 ($18.75-$19.90 choose a size)

Juicy, large red fruit with delicious, true raspberry flavour. A cool climate raspberry with fewer thorns than most. It is a floricane type. In winter, only remove canes that have produced fruit that year , leaving new wood to develop fruit in the second year. Fruits ripen mid to late summer.

Loquat - Nagasakiwase

$49.00 ($49.00-$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.

Blackberry - Thornless Chester

My blackberry arrived healthy and strong and within days of planting out had new growth even though we had some unseasonable heat and humidity. I chose this plant with a goal to reduce the number of berries I need to buy in plastic bags. It's growing well now but time will tell with regards to how much fruit it bears on SE QLD.

I bought this because it was thornless and non-invasive. The first year saw the 1 foot plant grew to 1.2 meters in heights. It gave a couple of cluster of blackberries. The fruit wasn't as sweet as I hoped it to be (could be because I picked it too ear...
