Panama Berry

$24.00 ($7.90-$79.00 choose a size)

A highly ornamental tree that bears small red berries within its first year. Blossoming and producing all year round, the flowers are white and followed by small red fruit that is sweet with the taste of caramel. The trees are exceptionally attractive with long spreading branches that often droop down to the ground and soft weeping foliage. Trees are very fast growing and drought hardy once established. They can grow 5-10m in ideal conditions but respond well to being cut back so it is possible to keep them smaller than this making it easier to browse on the tempting little fruits. Panama berries will happily grow and fruit in large containers provided they have a good quality mix and a healthy layer of organic mulch to hold the moisture in. It is the ideal backyard tree if you have children as it is a lovely little shade tree as well as producing tempting little sweet treats. Used fresh or in jams.Weed Warning: Panama Berry is regarded as an environmental weed in northern Queensland, and on Christmas Island, and is known to self seed in the suptropics.

Robert ★★★★★ 2y ago

WINDELLAMA, NSW

Kiwiberry - Issai

I chose this plant following extensive searches on youtube and other websites on growing kiwi fruit in general. Kiwiberry, depending on who tells the story, produces fruit in only a year or so, versus five or more years for fuzzy kiwis. The taste of kiwiberry was a clincher, it is similar to fuzzy kiwi, but sweeter and different enough to be unique. Unlike fuzzy kiwi it requires no peeling, the entire fruit is edible. Fruits are smaller than fuzzy kiwi, just a nice mouthful.

Kiwiberry - Issai

I had never eaten Kiwiberry but the idea of fruit that tasted like kiwifruit but didn't require peeling or cutting appealed to me. I simply planted the vine in well prepared soil and kept watered

LESCHENAULT, WA, Australia

The fruit is lovely and so far has not had fruit fly strike. The birds don't notice it either. I find our homegrown fruits sweeter than the shop bought fruit - perhaps because it's not picked as early. It's a very vigorous deciduous vine and likes to t...
