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.

Chinotto - Grafted

$59.00

The soft drink named for this citrus tree - 'Chinotto' is delicious with a unique flavour. It is well suited to this, as the taste of the flesh is bitter but the sweet citrus flavours develop with cooking. The rind is candied and added to Panettone, an Italian speciality, popular at Christmas celebrations. It is a thornless, attractive small tree with orange like fruits, well suited to container growing or small gardens.

Yuzu - Grafted

$39.00 ($39.00-$99.00 choose a size)

Native to China, the Yuzu has been used and cultivated in this region for thousands of years. The fruit is tart, resembling a grapefruit with mandarin overtones. It is rarely eaten as a fresh fruit but is used to makes sauces, preserves and a popular yuzu vinegar. In Korea thinly sliced fruits are combined with sugar and honey to make a thick marmalade like syrup. Yuzu kosho is a spicy Japanese sauce made from green or ripe yellow yuzu zest, chillis and salt. The yuzu is more cold tolerant than most other citrus, being able to tolerate to -5 degrees

Lime - Tahitian

$37.00 ($37.00-$69.00 choose a size)

The small to medium fruit is pale lemon-yellow with smooth thin skin. The flesh is a translucent pale green, tender and juicy with a true acid lime flavour. It is best to pick the fruit green as it can suffer from rot if left to ripen on the tree.

Cupuassu

$34.00 ($34.00-$39.00 choose a size)

Related to cacao, the cupuassu is popular in its native Brazil, but little known elsewhere. Unlike cacao, the pulp of the large-fruited cupuassu is used rather than the seeds. Pulp is processed into beverages and desserts. A form of chocolate and cocoa butter can be made from the seeds. Fruit is highly sought after and production is thus far limited to Brazil where demand greatly exceeds supply. Leaves are large and much like the cacao tree. Fruits are borne on the trunk and apexes of main branches. Strictly tropical Cupuassu prefers a very humid environment with little temperature variation throughout the year, and mean temperatures around 24C. Trees need lots of water for good growth.

Passionfruit - Sweet Granadilla

$27.00 ($19.75-$27.00 choose a size)

Regarded as the best tasting passionfruit in the world. The hard-shelled orange-yellow fruit is of excellent quality and has a white aromatic pulp. Production begins in 2 to 3 years. The vine is easily recognised by its heart shaped leaves. Prefers sheltered conditions. Frost tender when young.

Love this fruit. I make jams, cordials and tea from it. So easy to grow in south east Qld. Grows faster than other citrus trees and doesn't need watering.

Another random fruit tree purchase...just cant help myself ;)) I always justify my new additions by planting in a very large pot and maintaining my dream of buying a farmlet... Anyhow, back to the 'Buddhas hand'. Its growing beautifully in the pot.

This has always been a scabby looking tree, but has always produced wonderful fruit.  Have to keep up the white oil to it though because scale insects love it.
