Pollinators for the Chestnut - Winchester

Chestnuts can set some fruit on their ownbut an abundance of well filled nuts will set if you plant more than one. Choose another type from this list

Chestnut - April Gold

$59.00 ($59.00-$74.00 choose a size)

An early variety from the Dandenong ranges in VIC. Originally of European origin it produces extra large dark coloured nuts. Upright habit, free falling nuts.

Chestnut - Marone

$39.00 ($39.00-$84.00 choose a size)

This large-nut was sourced from WA but is originally of Italian origin. Fairly upright habit exhibiting Asian characteristics such as fine wood and pointy buds. Excellent quality.

Chestnut - Reilly

$49.00 ($49.00-$79.00 choose a size)

The Reilly originates from a planting made early this century on the Alstonville Plateau. A low chill variety that bears prolifically in Feb/March. Fair nut and keeping qualities.

Chestnut - seedling

$39.00 ($19.75-$39.00 choose a size)

This European chestnut produces large sweet nuts, the kind found sold in fruit markets. Seedlings are relatively quick to bear and are generally more hardy and quick growing than Grafted trees.

Chestnut - Flemings Special

$89.00

A specially selected, budded cultivar. Produces large brown nuts with a predominant stripe. Excellent quality nut for roasting. In addition to their nuts, Chestnuts are valuable as ornamental trees for larger gardens. Prefers well drained, acid soils. Mid-season maturity.

Chestnut Wandiligong Wonder

$89.00 ($69.00-$89.00 choose a size)

A very large nut with excellent flavour enclosed in a green prickly burr. Used for roasting and cooking. This is a very large spreading tree to approx 10m with good crops; more suitable to cool climate areas

Chestnut - Flemings Prolific

$89.00

Prolific bearer of large to medium, light-brown nuts. Specially selected Fleming's budded cultivar. Good quality for roasting. Mid-season ripeness Chestnuts are beautiful landscape trees, but should be planted away from walkways due to the spiked seed husk. Good drainage essential to success.

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

Longan - Seedling

$27.90 ($21.90-$59.00 choose a size)

A close relative to the Lychee tree but much larger, stronger and more cold tolerant. The fruit is deliciously sweet. Seed selected from the superior varieties. Even though not true to type the benefits include a vigorous tree making it more suitable for marginal climates. Cincturing at about 3-4 years of age can force earlier fruiting than normally expected from seedling trees.

Mulberry - White Shahtoot

$59.00 ($24.00-$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.

Nectarine - White Satin

$49.00

White, aromatic fleshed nectarine requiring 250 hours chill. Beautiful red skin and excellent quality fruit. Prune after fruiting in summer to encourage fruiting wood for next season. Thin fruit for good fruit size. One of the best tasting nectarines in the subtropics. It produces an early crop and is very sweet and juicy.
  Special  

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.

Dwarf Apple - Tropic Sweet

$49.00 ($49.00-$79.00 choose a size)

A low chill, deliciously sweet and crunchy apple. Bears two weeks before Anna. On a semi dwarfing rootstock, ideal for backyard plantings and container specimens.

SHARON, QLD

Chestnut - Winchester

This tree was already quite tall when I received it. I kept it where it got morning sun and afternoon shade for several weeks then planted it in a new mound of good quality garden soil where it receives direct light for most of the day (just a bit of late afternoon shade). It loves its new home and is growing really well. In due course I look forward to enjoying roasted chestnuts.
