Plum - Gulfgold (Grafted)

Kath's Edible Fruits
Update: 11hrs1mins

Comments: -

Multi grafted plum, 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!

BJ's Edible Fruits
Update: 15hrs19mins

purchased as a pot-bound throw-out from Bunnings I have teased out its roots and provided much compost. It is low chill so has lost its leaves. I am hoping that Spring will reveal a happier plant. It is going to need to cope with some fierce WA sun in its current location.

spores will be in cracks in the bark and also the soil. Reinfestation likely without autumn sprays and/or pre bud burst spray. since you have many trees that can be affected, I'd recommend you spray rather than suffer major outbreak

 It is quite vigerous although this has been curtailed with storms removing branches. They have really kicked into gear for 'spring' (July) and is blossoming and budding like a champ. No signs of infection.

Love mangoes but don't want a large tree. Unfortunately it is affected by fungus and all the new growth is crinkley. I don't like using sprays but I think I will be forced to to get any fruit out of this one.

Kakadu Plum (Seedling)

Kath's Edible Fruits
Update: 3 days 11hrs

Comments: -

Gorgeous tree, bush food. Great autumn leaf colour.

Planted by the dam, needs weeding around.  The horrible foreign vines are swamping it.


My poor kakadu plum lived as a very tortured tree and struggled on, it was neglected, strangled, whipper snipped, stomped on and somehow it struggled on, until finally the cows snapped it off at ground level. 

I will have to try again.

Town Farm's Edible Fruits
Update: 4 days 19hrs

As I have had such wonderful success with other sub-tropical peaches decided to try this one when it came on-line.  Only planted in October, 2009 but has doubled its size.  Very enthusiastic grower.  Can't wait to try the fruit.  If it like the other peaches I put in I should taste the first from this tree next summer.

Tree bursting out in flowers so expecting some lovely peaches around Xmas.

None at this stage but I anticipate the fruit/ may fly when fruiting.  Am going to try the fruit fly attractants and will also bag fruit.

Nectarine - Sunwright (Grafted) 8/10

Town Farm's Edible Fruits
Update: 4 days 19hrs

Comments: -

Planted November 2009 and looking very healthy with lots of new growth.  If it is as good as my peach trees I will be very happy. I would expect some fruit in first season.

Oh dear, all the rain we have had has taken its toll.  Wel have had to dig this tree up and re-plant in a mound as it got so water-logged.  I have cut it right back to try to reduce the stress.  Very disappointing as it was about 5ft high and looking so good.  Hopefully it will survive.

Recovered beautifully.  Lots of new growth but no flowers.  It didn't lose its leaves like the other temperate fruit tree so I will be interested to see if it flowers.

Peach - Anzac (Grafted) 4/10

Roch's Edible Fruits
Update: 5 days 20hrs

Comments: -

Bought from Bunnings. Very troublesome. Within 1st year of planting got curly leaf. Only knew it after the leafs came out, which is too late to control. Suspect it had it even before I purchased. Lesson to be learnt, if you plant stone fruits, always remember to do the copper treatment before buds swell. 2years but no fruits yet.

Prune in winter.
