Sippy Downs Fruit Trees (Popular)
Sippy Downs Fruit Trees and the most popular plants Australians buy for mail order. With fruit trees you should consider climate suitability.
Apricot - Glengarry
$79.00
Heavy cropping variety with small pale golden fruit and a slight blush. The tree is large, vigorous and heavy bearing. One of a few varieties that will crop in the subtropics. The fruits are very flavourful and a summer stonefruit delight. Prune branches during winter. Apricots grow best in full sun positions with good drainage and a regular application of fertiliser during the growin season. Fruit Fly and birds can be a problem and we recommend quality netting to cover the tree that is not harmful to wildlife.
Blueberry - Biloxi
$19.90 ($19.90-$49.00 choose a size)
A great choice for hotter climates with very few chill hours. It is often the first variety to hit the markets ripening a few weeks before other early blueberry varieties. The fruit is firm and the size is medium. Even though it fruits early it can often produce a second harvest later in the season although it's first time to fruit yields the best harvest. Best to mix with other varieties so that when this one is not fruiting another variety is.
Pepper - Black
$29.00 ($29.00-$39.00 choose a size)
Cultivated for the fruit which is dried and used as a spice and seasoning. The fruits are dark red when fully ripe. Immature fruits can be picked as green pepper, black pepper is the fruit dried with the skin on and white pepper is the dried seed only. Black pepper is the worlds most widely traded spice.

Mango - Kensington Pride
$79.00 ($74.00-$89.00 choose a size)
Grafted selection of the Australian renowned Bowen variety, excellent flavour, very juicy and aromatic. Most famous for not being too stringy. In cooler areas with wet spring weather, flowers and young fruitlets will fail and this can very much affect yield in those years. However sometimes you can prune off these flowers to force flowering and give it a second chance. Moderate susceptibility to Anthracnose and Black Spot. Average wt. 450gms. (Sams Selection)
Walnut - Placentia
$79.00 ($29.75-$79.00 choose a size)
Medium sized nut with a smooth, thin shell. Tree is heavy bearing with good quality nuts. This grafted variety has a lower chill than most walnut varieties and has cropped well in the Subtropics.
