About My Edible Backyard


Why Candy1 Love's Edible Plants

Hi, My Husband and I moved out here to this farm five years ago, It is quiet away from the seaside town of Esperance down on WA's South east coast. We have sand over clay soil and limestone. Our annual rainfall is 375ml. Our "orchard" as such is still new and has a lot of work to be done to it and added to it. The biggest challenge has been boosting the soil as we have had to build it up as the ground was very hard and had next to no nutrients, This year is the first where our garden actually looks like it going to produce a nice amount of fruit!

this thing is unbelievable it was covered with fruit within the first few months that we planted it and we only put it in this year! I can't say that I really like the taste of the fruit, My 13 year old son loves it.

This apple is sure to be a treat when it fruits all my trees are babies so we are on a wait and see basis, It should be a sweet green/gold type of fruit.
