Surfers Paradise Fruit Trees (Popular)
Surfers Paradise Fruit Trees and the most popular plants Australians buy for mail order. With fruit trees you should consider climate suitability.
Mango - Kensington Pride
$59.00 ($59.00-$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)
Lime - Tahitian
$44.95 ($39.00-$69.00 choose a size)
The small to medium fruit is pale lemon-yellow with smooth thin skin. The flesh is a translucent pale green, tender and juicy with a true acid lime flavour. It is best to pick the fruit green as it can suffer from rot if left to ripen on the tree.
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.
Special
Cherry - Minnie Royal
$69.00 ($54.00-$89.00 choose a size)
Minnie Royal cherry is a low chill producer of fruit with stand out flavour. It is a medium to large sized, red cherry with a firm texture. The tree is very productive and has been known to set heavy crops in southern California. Chill hours can be as low as 200 hours and does depend on micro climate. Fruiting can be as early as November. Minnie Royal requires a pollinator which has traditionally been the older Royal Lee variety but flowering times of these 2 can be mismatched in warmer areas and an intermediary is helpful. The newer, self pollinating Royal Crimson blooming can bridge between these two. Bees are the main pollinating insects, so plant flowering herbs to attract them to your garden. Other stonefruit may also provide pollination services. Plant within 5m of each other for best results. Hand pollination could be helpful in years where flowering times are mismatched.
