Dwarf Ambarella

$59.00

A fast growing tropical fruit tree, this dwarf form can fruit within 1-2 years. Fruit can be eaten fresh and used for drinks and jellies, the flavour is said to resemble pineapple. Fruit is borne is hanging clumps and change from bright green to orange when ripe. The fruit will fall from the tree and then ripen. Care must be taken when eating as the seed has spines. An attractive tree on its own.

Dwarf Mulberry - Red Shahtoot

$99.00 ($29.00-$99.00 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. 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.

Irrigation 30m Flex Tube 12mm diameter

$34.00

This flex tubing allows you to connect directly to your home garden taps and handle the typical water flow without bursting connections like typical polypipe that requires expensive pressure reducing connectors. The flexibility of the tubing allows you to run it along fences or through tight spaces and being black it is often not noticeable. Unlike brittle poly pipe the fixtures are easily assembled and won't burst when you turn the tap on full. You can join up to 90m in length or 3 lengths together then attach the sprinklers and still get enough pressure to to run the sprinkler heads.

Acerola - Florida Sweet

$29.00 ($14.90-$79.00 choose a size)

This bright red cherry like fruit has varying tastes during different stages as it ripens. When fully ripe the fruit is juicy and aromatic with its acid content giving it a sweet acid apple-like flavour. The tree can produce a number or crops each year, making for quite a long harvest season. Our selection is called the acerola Florida Sweet Cherry and is a pleasant eating variety that is not too sour. The acerola is well suited to pot culture where it can be kept to a smaller size. It could also be grown this way in cooler climates where it can be moved to a warmer position in the winter. A word of warning the foliage of the plant is covered in tiny irritating stinging hairs that can produce an allergic reaction. When pruning your trees wear a long sleeved shirt and a pair of gloves.

Allspice Reviews & Tips

Keperra, Queensland, Australia

Allspice

I was given this and did not know what it was for years. Flowered (small, cream flowers in clusters) prolifically after I cut it back severely. I grow it for the clove-scented leaves rather than the purple-black berries.

Redcliffe, Qld, Australia

It is still small, growing in a pot in full sun.  It gets on well with the other plants in the pot, Winter Tarragon, French Tarragon and Thyme.The leaves are used in cooking, no idea if the plant is male or female and we only have one.
