Fig - Blue Provence
$59.00 ($59.00-$99.00 choose a size)
The Fig - Blue Provence or Ficus carica is suited to subtropical environments as well as warm and cold temperate regions. The skin is bluish in colour and bears later in the season. Known for being sweeter than other fig varieties.
Cinnamon Tree
$39.00 ($27.00-$59.00 choose a size)
Highly ornamental tree and the source of cinnamon spice. The beautiful red new growth is highly distinctive. The spice itself is the inner bark that is peeled from the branches after 2 years. Scrape the outer bark, then peel the inner bark, leave for a day so that the inner bark curls into cinnamon sticks as it dries. They are distinctive in the many layered quill they produce that, when crushed, will shard rather than snap. Cinnamon is a very elegant and useful aromatic, much kinder to the palate than other spices. It imparts a distinctively sweet flavour when used. The leaves themselves are higher in clove oil than cinnamaldehyde, the active component of the sweet aromatic scent of cinnamon. Weed Warning: Can be invasive in tropical areas
