Dwarf Mulberry - Black

$21.00 ($19.75-$79.00 choose a size)

This mulberry has a very low chill factor making it ideal for our subtropical climate. Pruning after fruiting allows it to be kept under 3mtrs, and also encourages multiply cropping throughout the summer. It is best to pick the fruit when ripe, as it doesn't ripen further off the tree. A benefit of a mulberry tree is that the fruit ripens over an extended period of time unlike other fruit that often ripens all at once. The fruits of the black mulberry, considered the tastiest and most versatile of the mulberries are large and juicy with a good balance of sweetness and tartness. The fruit of the dwarf black mulberry is the same as that on the large black mulberry that we all know and love. The fruit is large, resembling a blackberry, sweet and luscious. When not devoured fresh it is ideal to use in jams, wines and mulberry pies. (Dwarf Mulberry Tree Video )This variety performs excellent in the Subtropics. There has been feedback that this variety doesn't perform as well in Temperate Climates.

Acerola - Florida Sweet

$18.75 ($14.90-$79.00 choose a size)

This bright red cherry like fruit has varying tastes during different stages as it ripens. When fully ripe the fruit is juicy and aromatic with its acid content giving it a sweet acid apple-like flavour. The tree can produce a number or crops each year, making for quite a long harvest season. Our selection is called the acerola Florida Sweet Cherry and is a pleasant eating variety that is not too sour. The acerola is well suited to pot culture where it can be kept to a smaller size. It could also be grown this way in cooler climates where it can be moved to a warmer position in the winter. A word of warning the foliage of the plant is covered in tiny irritating stinging hairs that can produce an allergic reaction. When pruning your trees wear a long sleeved shirt and a pair of gloves.

A great companion for citrus. This is not a fruit Ive tried but I like growing fruit that are considered a little bit different. Due to my colder climate I will grow this in a pot for a few years before transferring to a warmer part of the garden. Looking forward to trying this one.

Planted 8 trees along a fence line for a fruiting hedge. They receive no more than 50% sun, and after 3 years most are producing bunches of fruit with so little sun. Have made home made ice cream with them. Delicious.

Fruits readily but they are quite small.  Flavour is good in colder seasons but rather bland in hot weather.  Trees are easy to grow and carefree.  I still prefer the normal guavas.

This variety is really cold tolerant, doing well and remaining evergreen in a sheltered spot in Armidale. Lovely fruit in May-June. It is not as drought tolerant as sometimes suggested. Has thrived since I moved it from a dry spot in the garden.

Guava - Strawberry

Great little tree/shrub. Tolerates a wide variety of soils and climes. However, beware especially of fruit fly which is a fatal nuisance. Potash in late Winter increases flowering and fruiting. Makes a great jam/wine. Prune late Autumn.
