Grafting Tape - Buddy Tape

$89.00

Buddy Grafting Tape is a superior tape for all your grafting needs. Perforated at 7cm lengths, it can be stretched to 8 times its length, providing a firm grip on the graft that will stretch as the plant grows. It is permeable to allow air to reach the bud so covering them is not harmful but also has a waxy content that will prevent dehydration. When stretched, it adheres to itself allowing quick and reliable application. The tape biodegrades in sunlight so your plants are not cut into as they grow. Rolls measure 25mm x 60m, providing more than 850 grafts working out at 10c per graft.

Canistel - Grey

$79.00

Canistel Grey is a large elongated variety with a unique shape, ripening in late winter/Spring in the subtropics. Canistels are best eaten when they are at their optimum ripeness to achieve a creamy consistency and a sweet custard flavour. Their flowers are formed on their branches, a feature called cauliflory, enabling them to be pruned to keep them small. They tolerate the subtropics quite well.

Canistel Aurea

$79.00

Aurea produces a large elongated fruit of excellent quality. The fruit is delicious eaten fresh or with a little salt and lemon juice added. Canistels are often added to sweet custards or made into delicious eggnog-like milk shakes.
