Custard Apple - Paxton Prolific

$89.00 ($89.00-$99.00 choose a size)

A PBR selection of the popular Pinks Mammoth variety. It has a low seed count and excellent natural fruit set. This means that, unlike some other varieties, there is no need to laboriously hand pollinate each bloom to achieve a good harvest. Unpruned custard apples grow into very large trees. With dedicated, twice yearly pruning it is possible to restrict tree height and spread to 3-4m. This variety is subject to Plant Breeder Rights (PBR).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. This is not a problem long term. With care and acclimatisation they will bounce back

Dwarf Apple - Dorsett Golden

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

Sweet aromatic apple with yellow fruit and a delightful pink blush and firm white flesh. Low chill requirement allows it to be grown in subtropical climates. Grafted on a dwarfing rootstock they are ideal for backyard plantings.

Durian

$29.00 ($29.00-$69.00 choose a size)

Some people regard the durian as having a pleasantly sweet fragrance and an irresistible flavour; others find the aroma overpowering and it is common for them to be banned from public transport. The spikey fruits need to be handled with care, but once open the true richness of this unique fruit can be appreciated. The flavour is rich and sweet, it can be described as having a hint of roasted sweet potato or onion flavours but the one thing that is certain about the durian is that it tends to grow on people. The more you eat it the more likely you are to fall in love with it. Durian trees have one or two flowering and fruiting periods per year. A typical durian tree can bear fruit after four or five years. The durian fruit can hang from any branch and matures roughly three months after pollination. Growers often tie the fruit up to the branch so that when ready to fall they don't hit the ground and get damaged. Durians are very tropical and we only recommend them from areas north of Mackay in QLD.

Betel Nut

$21.90 ($21.90-$27.00 choose a size)

This medium sized, graceful, tropical palm is also commonly called areca nut, this is not a true nut but the palm seed. The seed is separated from the outer layer of the fruit and may be used fresh, dried, boiled, baked, roasted or cured. They can be chewed in a similar way to chewing tobacco, producing a mildly euphoric and stimulating effect, and helping reduce tension. Betel nuts and betel quids are generally chewed for their psychoactive properties that help reduce tension, produce a feeling of well being and facilitate social interactions and strengthen social ties. Around 10 to 20% of the world's population chews betel nut in some form. This makes it the 4th most widely-used psychoactive substance,after nicotine, alcohol and caffeine.

Dwarf Apple Duo - Dorsett-Anna

$99.00

Two low chill apple varieties in one pot. Plant a pollinating pair in one hole and prune as if one tree. Golden skinned Dorsett and red skinned Anna, sweet apples suitable for fresh eating and cooking. Dorsett Golden is a golden skinned apple with a beautifully tangy, sweet flavour and Tropic Anna has a red blush skin and sweet flavour, similar to the Red Delicious. The subtropical varieties are best when eaten fresh off the tree, and not used for storage. You can grow in a large pot, as an espalier or in the ground. Duo plantings are perfect for small back yards. Prune regularly to maintain compact shape, taking all inward pointing branches out. Provide nutrition slightly more than for one tree. Suitable for warm temperate to subtropical climates. Protect trees from late frost if you are in a more temperate area.

Safou

$31.95

An African fruit that can be eaten raw or cooked. Fruit is pleasant with a sub acid flavour. Trees also produce a good amount of biomass and are well suited to agroforestry. Fruit is high in protein, fat and vitamins. Fruits can range in colour from light pink to purple. Trees can grow up to 10-20m.

This fruit is number 1! I've always loved it since I was a child, it grows extremely well in the Philippines. I am growing 4 seedlings at the moment. I hope they survive the winter.
