Dwarf Mulberry - Black

$34.00 ($19.75-$79.00 choose a size)

This mulberry has a very low chill factor making it ideal for our subtropical climate. Pruning after fruiting allows it to be kept under 3mtrs, and also encourages multiply cropping throughout the summer. It is best to pick the fruit when ripe, as it doesn't ripen further off the tree. A benefit of a mulberry tree is that the fruit ripens over an extended period of time unlike other fruit that often ripens all at once. The fruits of the black mulberry, considered the tastiest and most versatile of the mulberries are large and juicy with a good balance of sweetness and tartness. The fruit of the dwarf black mulberry is the same as that on the large black mulberry that we all know and love. The fruit is large, resembling a blackberry, sweet and luscious. When not devoured fresh it is ideal to use in jams, wines and mulberry pies. (Dwarf Mulberry Tree Video )This variety performs excellent in the Subtropics. There has been feedback that this variety doesn't perform as well in Temperate Climates.

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

Everytime we buy a pineapple at the supermarket, it is selected not for its size or estimated taste, but for home many leaves it has on top, for its replantability. A truely renewable fruit ;)

They take a while to fruit, but the tiny fruit looks wonderful and the mature fruit tastes so good!  A great looking plant and I use it as a border plant as well.

I take off all the tops of the pineapples I buy, and plant them in the garden.  They are quite an attractive plant (but very spiny), and look just like bromeliads.  They can take quite a while to form a pineapple, but as they are so easy to look afte...
