Cinnamon Tree

$27.00 ($27.00-$49.00 choose a size)

Highly ornamental tree and the source of cinnamon spice. The beautiful red new growth is highly distinctive. The spice itself is the inner bark that is peeled from the branches after 2 years. Scrape the outer bark, then peel the inner bark, leave for a day so that the inner bark curls into cinnamon sticks as it dries. They are distinctive in the many layered quill they produce that, when crushed, will shard rather than snap. Cinnamon is a very elegant and useful aromatic, much kinder to the palate than other spices. It imparts a distinctively sweet flavour when used. The leaves themselves are higher in clove oil than cinnamaldehyde, the active component of the sweet aromatic scent of cinnamon. Weed Warning: Can be invasive in tropical areas

Dwarf Coconut Green

Coconuts don't like sustained wet feet or heavy soils, ideally you would procure old coconuts and husks to plant them in, last one I did I put 25 coconuts in the hole along with other goodies.

Dwarf Coconut Green

I bought this Coconut because I live in the Sub-tropics and believe it will fruit in this climate. In addition, a dwarf tree appeals as I do not like climbing ladders or Coconut trees. The Coconut arrived in good condition, ready to plant.

Dwarf Coconut Malay Green

I liked this plant because I grew up with coconut palms in my backyard when in Sri Lanka. Love the coconut water with the young flesh in it. I planted in a large pot without the bottom so I could bury the pot in the ground. I did this because my previous plant died after heavy rain. It was planted directly into the ground. Used sand and potting mix.
