The rounded fruit is of medium sized, orange-red, glossy, with a slight bloom; has dark flesh, is not edible until fully ripe and soft; seedless unless cross-pollinated; bears good crops regularly. The tree is of semi-erect habit.

Lychee - Kiamana

$74.00

Excellent backyard variety. Medium-sized, compact, rounded tree that usually matures fruit from mid- Dec. through Jan. Considered good bearing compared with most other cultivars, especially consistent in areas with warm winters. Its fruits are large, deep red, and 33-40 to a kilogram, with seeds that are not large in relation to the amount of flesh.

Wax Jambu - Red

$79.00 ($34.00-$99.00 choose a size)

Red waxy skin with crisp white flesh. Highly ornamental as well as sweet and tasty. Fast growing tree bearing attractive red pear shaped fruit that is crunchy and refreshing on a hot summers day. A highly ornamental fruit due to its striking red colour. They generally don't have seeds but may on rare occasions, depending on pollination.

Black Sapote - Colossal

$69.00

Seedling selection from Kyogle, very large fruit and self pollinating. Seedless when not pollinated. Closely related to the Persimmon this attractive glossy foliaged tree produces a fruit often called the 'Chocolate Pudding Fruit'. Delicious when eaten as a desert with cream and a touch of Rum or vanilla.

Pecan - Western Schley (A) SP

$46.95 ($19.75-$46.95 choose a size)

Suitable for a single-tree planting in the home garden. It will generally set a crop without a pollen donor. Requires plenty of water. Used for confectionary and culinary purposes.

Loquat - Nagasakiwase

$54.00 ($54.00-$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.
