Spring Mountain Fruit Trees (Popular)
Spring Mountain Fruit Trees and the most popular plants Australians buy for mail order. With fruit trees you should consider climate suitability.
Mango - Alphonso
$74.00
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.
Dwarf Coconut Malay Green
$59.00 ($59.00-$79.00 choose a size)
Moderate sized fruit with large volume-to-husk ratio. Reputedly the sweetest fruits for drinking. These high yielding precocious hybrid selections will grow outside of the tropics, in a warm and sheltered position. Worth trying in coastal locations as far south as Coffs Harbour. They will require free draining soil and are best planted deep with a deep organic mulch surrounding them.
Dwarf Mulberry - Red Shahtoot
$46.95 ($23.90-$79.00 choose a size)
Much more compact in growth habit than the King White Shahtoot. These delicious sweet fruits can reach 10cm in length. Ideal for back yards and we consider it a must have fruit tree for the back yard. The best way to eat mulberries is fresh from the tree but if some should make it to the kitchen bench they make excellent pies, jams, wines and sauces. Multiple crops are possible by pruning directly after your first crop. Suitable for most regions of Australia, although it can be susceptible to damage from late frosts. The red shahtoot is ideal for growing in pots and containers due to it small growing habit and it is ideal for school gardens as it does not produce fruits that stain and the sweet fruits are very appealing to children. This variety is best suited to warm subtropical climates and does not perform well in temperate climate where it tends to drop their fruit.
Orange - Washington Navel
$40.95 ($40.95-$79.00 choose a size)
The oldest and most popular navel grown in Australia. Has excellent skin colour and taste, and usually produces round fruit. Is inclined to drop fruit and split in some climates.
Dwarf Papaya - Southern Red
$40.95
This cutting grown Papaya is dwarfed in size and the fruit is produced low to the ground. Bisexual red fleshed Papaya with very sweet juicy flesh. Heavy cropper of elongated fruit. It is possible to have fruit within 4 months rather then waiting18 months from a seed.
