Jujube - Si Hong

$109.00 ($109.00-$149.00 choose a size)

Nashi Pear - Ya Li

$49.00 ($39.00-$49.00 choose a size)

The Ya Li pear has very white, very juicy and very sweet flesh, with a satisfying crunch to it. The skin and the flesh texture is smooth making it a scrumptious delight. It pollinates well with all other nashis.

Jakfruit - Rajhan

$99.00 ($79.00-$99.00 choose a size)

Lovely flavoured arils that are orange-yellow and have hints of vanilla. The numerous arils are crisp and the fruit is a good size - about 5 kg.

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.

Hazelnut - Halls Giant

$52.95 ($34.00-$52.95 choose a size)

Halls Giant is the main pollinator for Ennis. It does not produce a big crop of nuts but it does shed large amounts of pollen late in the season. Every planting of hazelnuts should contain at least 20% pollinators.

Jakfruit - Yullatin

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

Produces small fruit 3 - 12kg with large pale yellow arils that are essentially crisp but have a creamy soft texture. Super delicious.
