$39.00 ($14.90-$39.00 choose a size)

A dwarf Macadamia selection, growing to only about half normal size. Precocious bearer of small sized nuts. Ideal for pots or limited space.

Pandanus - Edible

$49.00 ($24.90-$99.00 choose a size)

Widely cultivated for use in Asian cooking and basket making. It has a nutty fragrance and is most commonly used in rice dishes or tied in a bundle and cooked with food. Also useful in flower arrangements. A low growing plant to 1m with long narrow blade like leaves and woody aerial roots. In tropical climates it can be grown as a marginal plant in dams and ponds, used as a bedding plant in tropical landscaping. Outside of the tropics, well worth trying as indoor plant in winter with a warm, sunny aspect. Allow the plant to dry out over the winter months.

Raspberry - Atherton

$21.90 ($19.75-$21.90 choose a size)

Native to the highlands of far North Queensland, this raspberry is a sweet red-orange berry that grows on an upright suckering, sprawling ground cover with cane-like stems. It is delicious eaten fresh. Their popularity means they are often on supermarket shelves. The taste is milder than the European raspberry. The plant is very resilient to warmer growing conditions and can produce up to 3 kg per plant. It does need some management so it won't take over the garden, grow it where the suckers can be mowed over, or alternatively grow it in a large pot.

Midyim - Copper Tops

A great little plant, planting it to make a small hedge with lots of fruit. Have planted them in winter and they are putting out new redish growth. Used sheep manure mixed with soil and potting mix. Cant wait till I can harvest these little gems.

Midyim - Copper Tops

Lovely hardy bush, growing well all year round for me in a pot in Melbourne. Delicious unique fruit with a savoury spicy taste reminiscent of Christmas - nutmeg, allspice, cinnamon. Can't get enough; going to plant many more in my front garden!
