Dean Park Fruit Trees (Popular)
Dean Park Fruit Trees and the most popular plants Australians buy for mail order. With fruit trees you should consider climate suitability.
Cherry - Royal Lee
$79.00 ($59.00-$79.00 choose a size)
Delicious, medium to large, dark red cherries, with a rounded to heart shaped look. This is a low chill cherry, requiring 200-400 hours of chill. Royal Lee requires a pollinator which has traditionally been the older Minnie Royal but flowering times of these 2 can be mismatched in warmer areas and an intermediary is helpful. The newer, self pollinating Royal Crimson blooming can bridge between these two. Bees are the main pollinating insects, so plant flowering herbs to attract them to your garden. Other stonefruit may also provide pollination services. Plant within 5m of each other for best results. Hand pollination could be helpful in years where flowering times are mismatched.
Cherry - Minnie Royal
$79.00 ($54.00-$89.00 choose a size)
Minnie Royal cherry is a low chill producer of fruit with stand out flavour. It is a medium to large sized, red cherry with a firm texture.

Orange - Arnold Blood
$39.00 ($39.00-$79.00 choose a size)
Sweet variety requiring hot dry conditions for best colour and cool winter nights. Blood oranges have their own distinctive flavour reminiscent of strawberries. This is the best colouring variety in the sub tropics.
Pomegranate - Elche
$34.00 ($19.75-$79.00 choose a size)
One of the most highly valued pomegranates in the world, thanks to its extraordinary flavour and high antioxidant, vitamin and mineral content. Elche comes from the Spanish city of the same name. Elche Pomegranates have to be picked at just the right time: Not too early because, once picked, pomegranates halt the ripening process immediately, and also not too late because they are then at risk of bursting.
Mango - Alphonso
$59.00
Yellow skinned, medium size, only slight fibre, excellent quality. Sets well in subtropics. It is a favourite of India where it is the most desired of all the mangoes. So although not a huge mango the quality and taste is what makes it famous.
