Wyong Creek Fruit Trees (Popular)
Wyong Creek Fruit Trees and the most popular plants Australians buy for mail order. With fruit trees you should consider climate suitability.
Lemon - Meyer
$37.00 ($37.00-$79.00 choose a size)
The popular Meyer is not a true lemon but likely to be a natural hybrid between a lemon and an orange. The lower acidity and reduced sourness makes it one of the most widely grown home-garden varieties. Very hardy and prolific. The fruits are a deep orange-yellow colour with thin skin and they are very juicy, making them perfect for use in dressings and marinades. The meyer is low in pectin.
Mango - Florigon
$74.00 ($74.00-$79.00 choose a size)
Definitely the winner in the taste department. The soft sweet flesh melts in your mouth. The fruit has a small seed and virtually no fibre and great flavour. Considered by some to be too small for the market it certainly makes up for its lack of size with taste. Yellow skinned, excellent quality fruits. Sets well in subtropics. Moderately resistant to Anthracnose, susceptible to Black Spot. Average wt. 300g. (Video - Grafting a Florigon Mango)
Banana - Blue Java
$28.90 ($12.90-$49.00 choose a size)
A fast growing, cold tolerant variety of banana also called Ice Cream banana as the flavour and consistency is reminiscent of creamy vanilla ice cream or custard. Grows to a height of at least 3m and sometimes up to 5 in tropical areas.
Orange - Washington Navel
$39.00 ($39.00-$99.00 choose a size)
The oldest and most popular navel grown in Australia. Has excellent skin colour and flavour, and usually produces round fruit. It's important to utilise fruit as soon as ripe as trees can be inclined to drop fruit or have it split in some climates
Orange - Lanes Late
$39.00
Seedless variety, maturing later than all other navels, usually mid July through to October. Thin smooth rind. The fruits are similar to the Washington but they are picked a couple of months later in the season. They are therefore a great companion tree to plant with a Washington navel or a Navelina for an extended fruiting season of navel oranges.
