Excellent jam. Need to watch for fruit fly though. Planted as emerging understorey. | Rod Hay - Newcastle, NSW 16-Mar-2009
I don't give my davidson's any care, except for putting some leaf mulch around the base every now and then. Still produces truckloads of good fruit, even in rocky hillside soil. | Eamonn O'loghlin - Brisbane, QLD 04-Apr-2009
