Much more compact in growth habit than the King White Shahtoot. These delicious sweet fruits can reach 10cm in length. Ideal for back yards and we consider it a must have fruit tree for the back yard. The best way to eat mulberries is fresh from the tree. If some should make it to the kitchen bench they make excellent pies, jams, wines and sauces. Multiple crops are possible by pruning directly after your first crop. Suitable for most regions of Australia, although it can be susceptible to damage from late frosts. The red shahtoot is ideal for growing in pots and containers due to it small growing habit and it is ideal for school gardens as it does not produce fruits that stain and the sweet fruits are very appealing to children. This variety is best suited to warm subtropical climates and does not perform well in temperate climate where it tends to drop their fruit.

In Africa it has been also called the Miracle Tree with so many uses. This tree has delicate foliage and attractive pale yellow flowers.

(Source: Nutritive Value of Indian Foods, by C. Gopalan) PLEASE NOTE: The foliage is delicate on young trees, and our potted plants are known for their older leaves to turn yellow and drop during transport to conserve energy.

Dwarf Coconut Green

Coconuts don't like sustained wet feet or heavy soils, ideally you would procure old coconuts and husks to plant them in, last one I did I put 25 coconuts in the hole along with other goodies.

MILLSTREAM, QLD

Dwarf Coconut Green

I bought this Coconut because I live in the Sub-tropics and believe it will fruit in this climate. In addition, a dwarf tree appeals as I do not like climbing ladders or Coconut trees. The Coconut arrived in good condition, ready to plant.

SEVENTEEN MILE ROCKS, QLD

Dwarf Coconut Malay Green

I liked this plant because I grew up with coconut palms in my backyard when in Sri Lanka. Love the coconut water with the young flesh in it. I planted in a large pot without the bottom so I could bury the pot in the ground. I did this because my previous plant died after heavy rain. It was planted directly into the ground. Used sand and potting mix.
