Jujube - Sherwood

$124.90 ($119.00-$149.00 choose a size)

The Sherwood jujube is considered to be one of the largest and best flavored jujubes, with fruit growing up to 5cm. The Sherwood is a thornless jujube tree producing very dense growth with a columnar, upright tree shape. Late season variety. Cross pollinate for best results.

Jujube - Admiral Wilkes

$124.00

Late season cultivar with tiger tooth shaped, elongated fruit. Extends Jujube harvest into late autumn. Fruit has a good sweet flavour. This variety is very vigorous, growing into a very tall, very productive tree with a slightly pendulum shaped habit.

Avocado - Reed (A)

$54.00 ($54.00-$79.00 choose a size)

Large, round , thick skinned variety with a smooth, green skin. They have a mild to rich flavour and have a good storing ability once cut and placed in the fridge. They are also a great choice for using in salads as they tend not to go mushy as does a Hass when very ripe. H Aug - Dec

Loquat - Nagasakiwase

$49.00 ($49.00-$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.

Bamboo - Gracilis

$49.00 ($49.00-$79.00 choose a size)

Slender erect green culms that when exposed at base will reveal long green internodes that turn yellow when in contact with the sun. Gracilis is a very popular variety and for good reason. Its growth rate is rapid and can handle almost any growing conditions and soil types and still look spectacular. Also known as Slender Weaver Bamboo it has dense evergreen foliage that can be left low to the ground or pruned away to show of its many culms. Gracilis is a non-invasive tight clumper that can easily grow in a narrow boxed garden bed. The fresh new shoots are edible. Culms can be split in long lengths, are strong and thin walled making them ideal for use in handcrafts such as basket weaving, furniture making, and musical instruments to name a few. To ensure the safe consumption of bamboo shoots, it's important to boil them before use. This process helps to remove the cyanogenic glycosides produced by the plant as a defence against herbivores. It's advisable to boil for at least 20mins and change the water once or twice during boiling to ensure all toxins are eliminated

Nectarine - TangO

$54.00 ($54.00-$59.00 choose a size)

A sweet, medium sized, yellow fleshed, cling stone nectarine that is easy to grow and delicious to eat. Harvest is from mid October to mid November in warmer climates and December to January in cooler climates. Perfect for subtropical climates, Southern Qld to Rockhampton and coastal NSW where the winters are warm, but it is equally at home in cooler growing regions. Full sized tree to 3-5m unless pruned

Tagasaste - Tree lucerne

This is a great plant to feed stock such as sheep and goats. I hope that my plantation will reduce my overall feed costs.

Tagasaste - Tree lucerne

I have dry sandy soil that repels water, hot dry summers and low rainfall. Light frosts in winter. My lucerne trees have flourished and have done a brilliant job as nurse trees, surrounding more sensitive plants until they get established.

Useful stock feed when things get dryJury still out - can this little green tree survive the harsh winds, dry conditions and terrible sandy soil.
