Acerola - Florida Sweet

$29.00 ($18.75-$79.00 choose a size)

This bright red cherry like fruit has varying tastes during different stages as it ripens. When fully ripe the fruit is juicy and aromatic with its acid content giving it a sweet acid apple-like flavour. The tree can produce a number or crops each year, making for quite a long harvest season. Our selection is called the acerola Florida Sweet Cherry and is a pleasant eating variety that is not too sour. The acerola is well suited to pot culture where it can be kept to a smaller size. It could also be grown this way in cooler climates where it can be moved to a warmer position in the winter. A word of warning the foliage of the plant is covered in tiny irritating stinging hairs that can produce an allergic reaction. When pruning your trees wear a long sleeved shirt and a pair of gloves.

Cinnamon - Cassia

Medicinal and food flavouring plant for my garden, tried to grow the other variety (cinnamon tree) but it didn't do so well. This has just taken off. Be aware this can not be eaten in large quantities ( ie every day) as it has a different chemical structure to the cinnamon tree also offered by Daleys fruit trees. Great antimicrobial.

Cinnamon - Cassia

Supposed to be tougher than cinnamon proper. So we're hedging our bets with both types. So far true cinnamon looks better.
