Imbe
$29.90
Originating in Africa, this tree bears a small plum like fruit bright orange in colour. A thin layer of acid-sweet, watery pulp surrounds the seed. The rather tender skin tends to prevent packing and shipping of the fruit, but it deserves to be more widely cultivated as a home fruit. Hardy to most conditions. Dark green leathery leaves and ornamental structure make it appealing as an interesting and edible landscape plant. Grows to a bush or small tree to 4-6 m. Imbes have good salt tolerance and are also wind tolerant. Trees are dioecious, so one each of a male and female are needed for pollination and fruit set. Plant a minimum of 3 seedlings to increase the chances of having one of each. Isolated female trees will set a few small fruit parthenocarpically but the quality and size is always better with a male pollinator.
Dabai
$34.95
Resembling olives, the ripe black fruit is soaked for 10 minutes to soften the skin and the flesh is sucked off the seed. Taste is creamy, like avocado, suits both savoury and sweet seasoning. Native to Borneo this tall tree can be pruned to control size. Trees are dioecious, meaning male and female flowers are on separate trees. The seed can also be extracted for a nutritious snack.
