Palm Beach Fruit Trees (Popular)
Palm Beach Fruit Trees and the most popular plants Australians buy for mail order. With fruit trees you should consider climate suitability.
Finger Lime - Wauchope
$54.00
A dark skinned variety with purplish black skin and a bright red highlight, the juice vesicles range from clear to having a pinkish blush. Good flavour
Dwarf Orange - Cara Cara
$44.00
This variety was discovered in Venezuela in 1976. It is smaller than many other navel selections but has pink flesh similar to Star Ruby grapefruit. In South Africa it matures slightly earlier than Washington navel. Although Cara Cara has yet to be evaluated fully under Australian conditions there is considerable interest in it locally. The dwarf rootstock, flying dragon modifies the top growth making this a dwarf plant that is ideal to use planted out or as a pot specimen.
Citron
$24.00 ($24.00-$79.00 choose a size)
The fragrant fruits of the citron are highly variable in shape and texture. They can be oblong or oval, rough or smooth. The rind is very thick and when candied peel it is used as a common ingredient in fruit cakes, plum pudding and sweet rolls. If fully ripened on the tree the fruits are very aromatic and yellow - orange, they can be placed in a bowl to scent a room. Sensitive to frost, the foliage and fruit can also be damaged by intense heat and drought. Citron has been cultivated since ancient times, and is still much revered today for cultural and religious reasons. Our seedlings come from a parent that produces elongated and pronounced knobbly fruit
