Drummond Fruit Trees (Popular)
Drummond Fruit Trees and the most popular plants Australians buy for mail order. With fruit trees you should consider climate suitability.
Yuzu - Grafted
$44.00 ($44.00-$79.00 choose a size)
Native to China, the Yuzu has been used and cultivated in this region for thousands of years. The fruit is tart, resembling a grapefruit with mandarin overtones. It is rarely eaten as a fresh fruit but is used to makes sauces, preserves and a popular yuzu vinegar. In Korea thinly sliced fruits are combined with sugar and honey to make a thick marmalade like syrup. Yuzu kosho is a spicy Japanese sauce made from green or ripe yellow yuzu zest, chillis and salt. The yuzu is more cold tolerant than most other citrus, being able to tolerate to -5 degrees
Pummelo - Flicks Yellow
$40.95
White fleshed, excellent mild flavour. Cold hardy. Certain characteristics suggest this is not a true pummelo but a hybrid.
Loquat - Nagasakiwase
$42.95 ($42.95-$79.00 choose a size)
The best Japanese variety so far, it has deep orange flesh, high flesh/seed ratio and very sweet flavour. Earliest variety to ripen. Thinning fruit will enhance fruit size. The Nagasakiwase often has 2 crops a year in the subtropics. The first crop in April / May then again in August. We have found by cincturing in summer, the August crop has a much larger crop and better fruit size.
Nashi Pear - Nijisseiki
$39.00 ($39.00-$39.00 choose a size)
A heavy bearing variety. Medium sized round fruit of excellent eating quality with crisp, white flesh and yellowish-green, transparent skin and moderate sugar content. Will set fruit without pollination however the fruit is smaller.
Kumquat - Calamondin
$44.95
In the Philippines it is referred to a as Calamansi, where the acid pulp is used to make chutney, marmalade or as a lime substitute. Very ornamental bearing heavy crops of small round fruits.
