BJ says... I was down the Tweed last week and Saturday morning was glorious. We went to Fruit World, but made sure we got there on opening and did everything nice and early. Just as we finished it bucketed down again. Perfect timing! I was beginning to think that cool and wet was the norm, but after a few days without rain the humidity is back with a vengance; you can almost see it like reverse rain being pulled back out of the ground into the sky... | About the Author Theposterformerlyknownas Brisbane 14th December 2010 12:39pm #UserID: 3270 Posts: 1552 View All Theposterformerlyknownas's Edible Fruit Trees |
Diana says... Hi BJ, I went there with my family a month ago, I had been wanting to go inside for years. I have been to the fruit shop at the front lots of times and the cafe, but never the tour. I wonder why they don't sell their own seedlings. They have such a massive range of fruiting plants that seem to be unavailable anywhere else. The website lists a lot of rare fruit trees that they grow and says it is the biggest range in the southern hemisphere. Most of the plants for sale at the front appear to be from elsewhere, e.g. forbidden fruits. I was tempted to pocket some fallen fruit with seeds, or cuttings during the tour (which was fun), but they don't let you wander far. Yes, it is very humid! I like it as long as it cools down a bit at night. Frogs and plants are doing very well at our place. | About the Author Diana Brisbane 14th December 2010 5:01pm #UserID: 3004 Posts: 284 View All Diana's Edible Fruit Trees |

BJ says... Next to the tasting shed there is a decent sized green house with lots of fruit trees - mostly seedlings, but a few grafted - which had a sign - 'fruit trees for sale'. It looked like lots of large Nispero, Green and Mamey Sapote, some Loquats etc. Our tour only had 10 or so people on it, so we got to jump off a few times and taste things, like the huge pile of Yellow Mangosteen left laying about. The later tours had lots of folk on them and I doubt they'd let you off to have a wander on one of those... | About the Author Theposterformerlyknownas Brisbane 14th December 2010 5:48pm #UserID: 3270 Posts: 1552 View All Theposterformerlyknownas's Edible Fruit Trees |
