Chinese Red Bayberry

$79.00 ($39.00-$79.00 choose a size)

Fruit is typically a deep, brilliant red, but may vary from white to purple. Flesh colour is similar to outer colour, or somewhat lighter. Flesh is sweet and tart with berry flavours. Single seeded. Besides eating fresh, the fruits may be dried, canned, soaked in liquor. The bayberry is an evergreen dioecious tree with separate male and female plants. Our seedlings are not sexed and it is recommended to grow at least 3 to be assured of at least one female.

Wax Jambu - Pink

$49.00 ($29.00-$99.00 choose a size)

Fast growing tree, attractive pink pear shaped fruit that are crunchy and refreshing on a hot summers day. Grows and crops well here in the subtropics as long as they are protected from frosts when young. They generally don't have seeds but may on rare occasions, depending on pollination.

Pandanus - Edible

$40.95 ($24.90-$69.00 choose a size)

Widely cultivated for use in Asian cooking and basket making. It has a nutty fragrance and is most commonly used in rice dishes or tied in a bundle and cooked with food. Also useful in flower arrangements. A low growing plant to 1m with long narrow blade like leaves and woody aerial roots. In tropical climates it can be grown as a marginal plant in dams and ponds, used as a bedding plant in tropical landscaping. Outside of the tropics, well worth trying as indoor plant in winter with a warm, sunny aspect. Allow the plant to dry out over the winter months.

Grapefruit - Rio Red

$39.00

The Rio Red has less colour than Star Ruby and the colour of fruit on individual trees can vary considerably. Needs to be harvested soon after maturity.

Magnolia - Heaven Scent

$46.95

A fragrant magnolia growing to approx 4M. The pastel, lavender-pink flowers are paler on the tips and white inside. A prolific bloomer and a beautiful spring flowering specimen tree.

Olive - Miniolea TM

$34.00

Semi-dwarfing Olive. Self fertile, producing small to medium fruit suited to pickling and oil production. A precocious producer of fruit in most climates but selected for subtropical areas. Will fruit in its 2nd year. With its moderate growth rate and ability to produce fruit on this season's wood, they can be pruned to 2m. Perfect for growing in pots or as a fruiting hedge. Miniolea has been selected by Australis Plants after many years of research to identify adaptable varieties that will fruit reliably in both warm and cold climates for home gardens throughout Australia.

SANCROX, NSW

Cape Chestnut

This purchase was for a small acreage allotment with the overall intent of providing a nice shade tree - in time. Planting location is on mid North Coast NSW and there are a number of larger fully grown trees in the district that I have observed. Product delivered was a good size and as advertised and am very pleased with the purchase.
