Lemon Myrtle

$24.00 ($18.75-$34.00 choose a size)

The Lemon Myrtle occurs naturally throughout coastal Qld rainforests. It is a spectacular ornamental tree due to both its appearance and the superb fragrance of its flowers and leaves. The leaves and flowers are used in sweet and savoury dishes or as a refreshing tea. However as boiling or baking often reduces the flavour. The leaves are best added to the recipe at the end of the cooking process and either left to steam with the lid on or made into a sauce or dressing. It is usually the older and fully hardened-off leaves that are harvested for use. Enthusiasts describe the distilled oil from this tree as 'more lemony than lemon' and its used extensively to scent confectionery, perfumes, aromatherapy oil and food flavourings.

Aspen - White Reviews & Tips

Aspen - White

This is a beautiful little tree. A lovely shape and bright glossy green leaves. It has only been in the ground for a week or so and seems to have a bit of sunburn on some of the leaves. It is in full sun in the subtropics so perhaps I didn't harden it off adequately before planting it. It seems very healthy though and has new growth so I'm hopeful that it will recover and prosper.

Growing happily and healthily in a dark, overcrowed corner of the backyard where everything else seems to die or get eaten by the bugs. Growing in a more bushy than erect form, and I dont expect it to fruit any time soon, but it's a nice little plant.
