Feijoa - Mammoth
$46.95 ($46.95-$99.00 choose a size)
A large, round to oval fruit with a slightly wrinkled thick skin. Very good flavour and quality, moderately soft and juicy, moderately smooth. Self-fertile but bears larger fruit with cross-pollination. Mid-late season.
Pine Nut
$29.00 ($19.75-$99.00 choose a size)
An attractive large pine tree that bears cones of edible nuts. These are considered a delicacy in Mediterranean style cooking, due to their sweet, buttery flavour. Trees can be expected to start producing cones from about year 6. But can take longer. Each cone holds about 50 nuts and 100 kg of cones holds about 20 kg of nuts. Grows best in dry cooler areas with excellent drainage. Trees can set nuts on their own, but cones may be poorly filled. Plant two or more to improve nut set.
