Correy says... 1. Dwarf Coffee Trees (Catui) - The desire to achieve the perfect cup of coffee has given me a love for the coffee tree. I have 8 growing in pots and my older ones have beans on them. They are a lush evergreen tree and when they flower it is spectacular and the smell is overwhelming like a frangapani. It is amazing how such a small tree can produce so many beans even after 2 years. They are definitely a talking point for me. 2. Black Sapote or Chocolate Pudding Fruit - This fruit is a bit bigger then an orange but it is action packed. The ones I have eaten had no seeds and the insides are thick and creamy. The taste is splended and yes in my opinion there is definitely a chocolate pudding flavour especially if you mix it with coconut to give the milky flavour of chocolate. I now have 2 varieties that I am growing in pots the bernicker and the ricks late black sapotes. 3. Mango Tree - I am most proud of my mango tree that I am growing in a pot. Most people who see it can't believe that such a small tree can produce huge mangoes. I have the Glenn variety however most people like to grow the Dwarf Irwin Mango Tree in pots. The Glen has the best flavour though. | About the Author Correy Woolloongabba, QLD 15th January 2008 |

Dayle Batistic says... Guavas have become our favourite, we are eagerly awaiting our future crop to ripen and as soon as it does they will be going in the juicer with our organically grown oranges, aaaahhhh heavenly. Also, I have planted a feijoa which has doubled in size with all the rain we have had , I am looking forward to future crops of feijoas as well. We have a magnificent lychee tree that last year gave us a bumper crop but unfortunately the birds and the possums beat us to them this season, rats, I'll get the bird netting up earlier next year.

Jenny Bluefields says... here's my 2 cents worth... 1st favourite - Capulin Cherry, a prolific producer of tiny tasty fruits that, because of their pine resin flavour, remind me of drinking Retsina! 2nd favourite - Like Paul's, Acerola Cherry. Its flavour and texture lies somewhere between an ordinary cherry and a sweet juicy red capsicum. 3rd favourite is the Rose Apple and I'm anxious for my overpruned tree to bounce back so I can remember why exactly! I'd also like to pay homage to the exquisite scents of orange and lemon blossoms. (By the way, photo by Kath is of Chris and I on the highway into Kyogle under flood!)

Anna Lusso says... I agree with you, i have been saying for years, that in coffs region rains very abundatly and there is plenty of surplus. Instead of disalinating or recycle water, why not collect water from this region and take it where is needed. I come from Canberra originally where is dry. many cities are screaming for more water in the dam. it requires a lot money to desalinate or recycle water, just as much as diverting water. where i would like to share our over abundance of water. | About the Author Anna Lusso Coffs Harbour 16th January 2008 |

John says... pawpaw with some salt and peper with a squeeze of lemon soursop, so its still frim in the skin but as u bit it the sensations explode in your mouth. but the best is durian fresh or slitly frozen, but my heart only can handle very small amounts of it now, and i luv the way people react to its smell (purely havenly) | About the Author John SB South Australia 16th January 2008 |

Maria says... Granadilla (Passiflora Liguralis) from Colombia, crack in on your head, eat it with a spoon, Beautiful spoted orange rigid skin, inside it looks like snot, but it taste delicious. Yellow Pitaya... delicious, but don't eat too much or you will need to go to the toilet... Mamoncillo, also from Colombia, you can not find it here, it's like a lichee, but green outside, salmon color inside... | About the Author Maria Sydney 16th January 2008 |

Val says... Mangoes - the short but wonderful season is now over. Will be a while before I'm picking my own - the tree is just a baby. Bananas - (okay I know technically it's a herb)can't go past the flavour of home grown bananas. Won't be long now before I'm eating my own (pictured). And, of course, pinapples. | About the Author Val Darwin NT 20th January 2008 |

Ruth Brown says... #1 Lychees, I grew up on them and their season is too short. I can't get enough of them and they are no where near as good in the shop as they are fresh off the tree. They grow well enough given water in my climate. #2 The ever versatile Lemon. It is easy to grow,they last reasonably well I can make alot of different things with them. #3 Rambutan another fruit I grew up on (in Season) I don't have a plant but would love one. Again one of the best fruits taste wise. I always want what i don't have ie: Ice Cream bean hint hint. | About the Author Ruth Brown Clermont 21st January 2008 |

Alison says... Oh this is so tough! I love: 1) Mango - especially sucking on the seed! 2) Black Sapote - who couldn't love a fruit that looked like chocolate moose on the inside - fantastic in fruit smoothies 3) Babaco - Such a beautiful fragrant smell and juicy flesh and we got so many huge fruits off our tiny tree, it was insane! And soursop, cherimoya, lychee, oh and the bubblegum taste of jackfruit... Alison www.happyearth.com.au | About the Author Alison Wollongong 28th January 2008 |

John says... Hey aanji, look for these in the thai and indo cook books. These are the most probile places due the the abunance of the there. I find it hard to believe you would be able to make a jam from a ripe friut as it turns to a liquid when its ripe. I prefer to eat them slithly hard so as the serbert tingles down my throught. I have a tree in Indo but its classified as a chicken food by the locals. Anyway if you succeed, give me the recipe too. Im interested. Thanks | About the Author John SB SA 4th April 2008 |

John says... hey aanji, sorry my wife just told me she used to make it reguarlarily, I now told. You make it the same as you would stawberry. Only need jam setta, sugar and very ripe soursops to maintain that sweet but tangy flavour. Hope it works out. I have to wait to get back to get to taste this. Apparently, pine apple, star apple, star fruit, and even durians can be made the same way as jams. yummy. Do you know by know what I am asking my wife to make will we are overseas. good luck. | About the Author John SB SA 4th April 2008 |

Amy says... 1. Feijoas....yummy. We had a fantastic dwarf, self fertile variety back home in NZ...it produced huge fruit every year with absolutely no attention. Beautiful fresh or in a crumble. We're planting several feijoas in our new garden - love the taste & the fruit seem to be very difficult, if not impossible, to purchase here. 2. Tamarillos. Another favorite from NZ that are stupidly expensive over here. Lovely fresh, cut in half with a sprinkle of sugar. Yuuuuumy! 3. A tie between rhubarb & Blackboy peaches. Rhubarb is just a lovely staple to have int he garden. Easy to grow & yummy to eat. Especially cold, stewed rhubarb on your breakfast cereal. Yummy. I was astounded when I bought some in the supermarket & the girl on the checkout had no idea what it was...had never seen or tasted any! As for blackboy peaches - an oldie but a goodie. I have no idea if you can get them here - I haven't seen them for sale but I'd love to get one if I could. They make the yummiest desserts! My grandmother used to bottle them for us...so yum. | About the Author Amy Melbourne 10th April 2008 |
