Kath's WISH LISTPassionfruit - Grafted Black![]() Why Kath wants it: - It is hard to go past a black passionfruit in terms of flavour and fullness of fruit. I need to construct a trellis for the vine though. I do have seedling black passionfruit growing wild in the bush but I have not seen them fruit - this may be because they don\'t get enough sun. Kakadu PlumWhy Kath wants it: - I would like to try another one of these. So far I have lost two, this was not the trees fault. Pawpaw - Southern Red![]() Why Kath wants it: - I want to try another pawpaw but, but need a protected north facing spot for one. Indian Almond Tree![]() Why Kath wants it: - Gorgeous tree, edible almond like kernal. Japanese Raisin![]() Why Kath wants it: - Looks interesting. It is deciduous and tough. Star AniseWhy Kath wants it: - I love spices Aniseed Myrtle![]() |

Dwarf Lime - Tahitian (Grafted) Kath's Edible FruitsUpdate: 13 days 10hrs Comments: - This tree is struggling, it keeps getting cut back hard to remove gall wasps and it has not had a chance to grow very much. Gets scale and suffers from neglect. I will have to give it more attention if I want it to thrive, I wish I had bought a tree on trifoliata as the dwarf is too slow.

Pomegranate - Rosavaya (Cutting) Kath's Edible FruitsUpdate: 13 days 10hrs Comments: - A lovely plant that is growing really well with little -or rather no attention. Beautiful red leaf flush of new growth in the spring, lights up the bottom of the orchard. On fire in the afternoon sunset as the glowing tail end of the day lights up the new growth. Gorgeous. Tough spot in the orchard - lives in the shaddow of the weed wall! - But on the bright side at least the wattle shading it has gone. Weeping foliage & gorgeous flowers make this a lovely plant to have in the orchard. All flower dropped 2010, 2011, tried hand pollinating - crossing with a Wonderful.

Sapodilla - Sawo Manila (Grafted) Kath's Edible FruitsUpdate: 13 days 10hrs Comments: - I finally planted my Sawo Manilla in June 2010, I hope it is not too much of a temperature shock going from the poly house to the top of my hill. It is right up the top of the orchard, not too bad a spot, planted into a big mound as the soil is fairly heavy, will need to keep the lantana hedge at bay.

Cork Oak (Seedling) Kath's Edible FruitsUpdate: 13 days 10hrs Comments: - The Cork Oak - Quercus suber is not exactly edible but it a very useful plant for keeping wine in the bottle and it is used for flooring, platform shoes and other essential products. In fact buying wine with a cork supports an ancient traditional industry of cork growing in Europe and north Africa. I collected my acorns in mid June 2010 from the impressive tree in Tenterfield, northern NSW which was planted in 1861 after being transported to Australia in a jam tin. I planted the acorns straight away point down in forestry tubes, in July I noticed roots poking out the bottom of the tubes and by August the seedling oaks are all popping up. The cork oak is an evergreen spreading tree with wiggly squiggly branches and gorgeous thick corky bark. Now I just have to wait 150 years for my acorns to grow into impressive specimens, I can only hope someone in the future will get to enjoy these trees.

Persimmon - Astringent (Grafted) Kath's Edible FruitsUpdate: 13 days 10hrs Comments: - Essential to feed, water and mulch as it breaks bud in the spring. This
year 2008, my trees has grown two foot in a spurt. It is a beautiful
tree. April 2010, unfortunatly I just dropped a tree onto
my persimmon - whoops, serves me right for not cutting the wattle down
when it was tiny, by the time I decide to fix the problem, it is 6-7 m
high and smothered in vine. The persimmon stood up pretty well
considering, it has been pruned on one side as a result so is a little
lopsided for the moment, at least it will get more sunshine. Now I just have to keep the vine covered lantana hedge at bay.

Plum - Mult Grafted (Grafted) Kath's Edible FruitsUpdate: 85 days 1hrs Comments: - Multi grafted plum, affectionatley called my Muti PLum for it mutant nature, rootstock Myrobolan, grafted with mariposa, regrafted with gulf gold and gulf ruby. Problamatic but interesting. Lesson in importance of thinning the fruit. Lost one of the grafts, not to worry grafted some of the broken bits onto new rootstock shoots - way to low, going to create new problem next year when the fruit hang on the ground. The Chill Factor - end Aug/Sept 2010 - all the plums are flowering together, by early Sept. the Gulf Gold has set lots of fruit - but is still spot flowering. The mariposa part of the tree is also flowering, what felt like a warm winter because the minimums were high was cooler because the maximums were lower - so the chill factor was higher! I used mesh fruit fly exclusion bags on a couple of branches of the plums, the birds have been pecking at them today - so I picked the gulf ruby's.

Wampi - Guy Sam Kath's Edible FruitsUpdate: 519 days 4hrs Comments: - My Guy Sam has a tough spot - right up the top if my orchard - hot western position, under the shaddow of the top weed wall of ever encroaching pesky lantana. This level of the orchard is on the same level of our gravity feeding dam tank - so it will never get a drink - (not than anything else does either). It is also a difficult level to get to as there is no wheelbarrow track up to it. It is an effort to get a hay bale up there so this row is very neglected and need to be tough. Not a very happy tree - not thriving, but there is hope for it as it has not died. Planted: 2008 Height 2 metres Growing: In the Ground Qty: 1 Was this review helpful?

Papayuelo Kath's Edible FruitsUpdate: 13 days 10hrs Comments: - The first tree to fall over in the January 08 rains. A female, this turned out to be a good thing as I had two other female trees. I replaced it with a male tree and now have lots of fruit. Ironically more than 18 months on this tree has not actually died, it is thriving in a non dying kind of a way in my well drained, slowly acumulating compost heap. And in 2010 my undead tree is fruiting - it is still in the compost heap and has to go, it is almost time for it to die again. February 2011 I finally chopped it down, before it roots dug up the compost bins. Was this review helpful?

Musk Okra - Abelmoschus moschatus (Seedling) Kath's Edible FruitsUpdate: Comments: - I have a bad habit of planting anything that is free. It took 4 years for this to flower so I could find out that I didn;t really want it in my orchard. I ripped it out and replaced it with a Kwai Muk. Was this review helpful?
