denise1 says... I think achacha is too tropical for wollongong. A mulberry should give some fruit, you can get a dwarf pakistan one or a taller one. Some bananas I have seen growing in some shade but not every banana would do it.

phil@tyalgum says... Interestingly a lot of citrus will tolerate some shade, esp fingerlimes. You may not get a huge crop but enough to satisfy a single household. I would also go for loquat, pawpaws and guavas.	About the Author TyalgumPhil Murwillumbah 16th September 2015 9:03am #UserID: 960 Posts: 1377 View All TyalgumPhil's Edible Fruit Trees

Bangkok says... It's really hard to kill achachairu, so no worries. I have overwatered and underwatered and frost and whatnot. Still growing steadily. I have all mine in full sun. I copied this line from the web, i would give it a try if i were you.	About the Author Bangkok Thailand 16th October 2015 3:20pm #UserID: 11594 Posts: 370 View All Bangkok's Edible Fruit Trees
