About My Edible Backyard


Why Carla1 Love's Edible Plants

Soil type- sandy,        Annual rainfall - 36inches,      Aspect of property - South facing.


Our Orchard does it tough. Most of the plantings were done in 1997.  During this  time our orchard has been through 10yrs of drought, 4x Hail storms, Possum attacks and just recently a tornado (Dec2008). To this time we have lost only 15% of our 100 fruit trees. We mulch mulch mulch. Our soil type is sandy to light loam. Great for drainage but does dry out. A tip.. when we dug the holes and they were deep.   We placed thick cardboard in the bottom of the holes. This acts like a underground reservoir. I would only recommend sandy soils for this tip. Also we have long western sunsets and we do get medium to heavy frosts.    I collected local Wattle seed, which are not the suckering type and planted 4 Wattle  seedlings around each frost sensitive fruit tree (to protect from frosts and western sun).  The Wattles have now become timber and mulch for the very fruit trees they have been protecting for all these years. Now, I only plant tough trees as the above can become  time consuming. Well, not all the time. My next experiment will be a Wonga Beach Coconut. Hymmm

Update March 2021 - After a long drought, one excellent summer rainfall.... I have a good crop of Walnuts. 

Photo taken 2009, No rain Nov-Jan09, top dressed 09, No nuts yet. 

It's now Oct 2016 and have updated photo.  It been fruiting since 2013 (March) and have germinated the seeds (90% strike).  I'm amazed at it's growth burst after dormancy, sometimes 2m in one season.  This tree has been cut back every winter for scionwood.

Photo taken 2009, No rain Nov09-Jan10.   Kept this (G)Sapodilla in a pot for 10yrs to get big enough for planting out.  As they are frost sensitive.  The area which this tree is planted can get light frosts.  So far so good

Nov 2010, A tree fell over on it and split the trunk in half.  I have painted the the open half trunk with black tar & hope it will pull through.

You are lucky because my seedling black sapote (5m tall) gets plenty of flowers but they all drop off. Seems they are self-infertile.

I bought about 10 at the same time from Daleys, no more than 3 years ago one of them is now about 6m tall and 4m wide, the others vary with the smallest being 1m tall and 40cm wide, the largest in my garden was planted next to a secondary compost bin which i only ever use when cleaning out the main bin, they REALLY love a good compost, i took just one bucked of compost to one of the ones in the front yard it has grown about 1m in 3 months, the largest in the back yard has a trunk 20 - 30cm in diameter already! the birds seem to love it! as do I!
