Rollinia - Brazilian Custard Apple

$34.00 ($19.75-$79.00 choose a size)

A relative of the cherimoya this plant has its origins in tropical America. The fruit about 100mm in diameter has a creamy juicy and delicious flesh, according to some tasting like lemon meringue pie. Fruits within 4 years from seed. Seed selected from extremely sweet and flavoursome fruit with firm white flesh and few seeds.The foliage is delicate on young trees, and our potted plants are known for their older leaves to turn yellow and drop during transport to conserve energy. This is not a problem long term. With care and acclimatisation they will bounce back

Sugar Herb - Stevia

$18.75 ($17.75-$18.75 choose a size)

Stevia or the sugar herb is native to Brazil. The fresh or dried leaves can be used as a sugar substitute to sweeten cakes, drinks or desserts and are the only natural sweetener to have zero calories, carbohydrates and a zero glycemic index. The leaves if eaten fresh have a distinct set of flavours, the first sensation on the taste buds is the sweetness, this is followed by a pleasant aniseed like flavour which is lost totally once the herb is dried. Stevia is best grown in a sunny or partly shaded position where it is protected from frost. Thrives in moist, well drained soils enriched with humus. Ideal for pots, herb and kitchen gardens.The flowers will emerge from the ends of the stems throughout summer, and it does die back in winter but the plant is perennial and will bounce back in spring. The foliage is delicate on these young herbs, and our potted plants are known for their older, lower leaves to turn yellow and drop during transport to conserve energy. This is not a problem long term. With care and acclimatisation they will bounce back.

Orange Berry

$17.90 ($17.90-$29.00 choose a size)

Native to rainforest and vine thickets in tropical Australia to as far south as Bundaberg and spread into Asia this is an attractive small tree with tasty berries. Tiny white fragrant flowers are followed by small orange to pink juicy fruits that are sweet and honey flavoured with resinous overtones. Obviously related to the citrus family the foliage is glossy and aromatic. Perfect for use in a mixed screen or bush food garden the orange berry is also a host plant for the swallow tailed butterfly when the plant is young. Fruits make a delicious jam that taste similar to candied honey.

Papaya - Red RB4 Hybrid

$17.75 ($7.90-$21.90 choose a size)

Red-pink fleshed variety. These hybrid trees are bisexual so self-fruitful, however, plant two or more to increase yield. Papaya is a highly nutritious food source that is delicious, quick and easy to grow. Plant in a warm, sunny location and regularly feed. Good drainage is required as papaya do not like wet feet. Plant in raised beds, on a slope or directly in free draining soil. Protect your fruits from birds and bats when they are close to ripening. They can be picked a little early to ripen off the tree. Enjoy growing your awesome Papayas!

Love these yummy flowers , love stewing with Apple and rhubarb . I grow about 6 a year in large self watering pots , because they are thirsty . I use the root mat afterwards to line my hanging pots . One day will grow extra and try jam.

we plant 6 plants each year. Yield is good. We make jam from the calix  after flowering. The flowers are very attractive. Since we learned the trick of using an apple corer to remove the calix from the seed , jam making is much faster!
