Aspen - White

$21.90

A small to medium rainforest tree with striking bright white fruit that is produced during winter. A good food source for birds and can be eaten by humans. Fruits have a orange flavour with a pleasant aromatic peppery flavour.

Yellow Mangosteen

$34.00 ($26.90-$79.00 choose a size)

Yellow Mangosteen is a round fruit with very tart yellow segments. The high acidity makes it ideal for jams and jellies but removing the seed and skin can be time consuming. Easier to grow in the subtropics than the purple mangosteen, but the flavour is altogether different. The tree grows well in full sun and shade. It will tolerate and continue to fruit heavily in drought conditions. The tree is very attractive, with large drooping leaves and a layered form. The fruit can reach 8-10 cm in length and looks highly ornamental when in the tree. Pairs so well with a Miracle Fruit to reduce the acid flavour and bring out the interesting tropical flavours.

Red Ash

$3.40 ($3.40-$17.75 choose a size)

This tree is a natural colonizer in a wide range of conditions. Fruits are round and black and the mealy flesh encloses two hard capsules. These usually fall, leaving red seeds attached to the twigs for months.

Poshte

$24.90 ($17.90-$24.90 choose a size)

This round fruit, although relatively little known has a rich aromatic and delicious flavour. The fruit is the size of an orange and has a dull green surface with perfectly textured pulp. The tough skin allows it to be handled easily and makes it resistant to insect attack. The seeds separate easily from the luscious perfectly textured pulp.

Black bean

$14.75 ($14.75-$18.75 choose a size)

Attractive native riparian rainforest tree with a handsome rounded crown of glossy dark green foliage and profuse flushes of yellow and red pea-like flowers during summer. The timber is highly prized. Bird attracting. Large and spreading in the open to 10m but can reach 40m in its native habitat. First Australians used the seeds to make a damper after much preparation to remove the toxic substances by cooking, grinding and leaching in water.
  Special  

White Beech

$3.90 ($3.90-$17.90 choose a size)

Medium to large fast growing timber or specimen tree with purple and white flowers and bright blue-purple fruits which attract native pigeons. Excellent in tub when young. Partly deciduous. This superb rainforest tree is difficult to germinate, so supply can vary

Red Bean

Despite it being an excellent cabinet timber, if you're going to woodwork or wood turn Red Bean, be sure to wear a mask and eye protection. It can cause nose and throat bleeding.
