Lime - Australian Desert 'Abundance' PBR

$99.00

Selection of unique native Lime from inland Australia, with great flavour and zing. "Abundance" is an earlier ripening cultivar with outstanding adaptation to heat and cold from its natural habitat. Trees grow to only 2.5m. Plants are thorny to prevent herbivores from browsing but top-most branches out of their reach are thornless and these quality grafted plants are produced from these thornless upper branches. From flowering to fruiting is generally only 3 months, making this a great backyard plant. This plant has Plant Breeder's Rights over it.

Chestnut - Winchester

$49.00

A large low chill selection suitable for the sub tropics, sets well on its own but will benefit from cross pollination.

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.
