Loquat - Nagasakiwase

$49.00 ($49.00-$79.00 choose a size)

The best Japanese variety so far, it has deep orange flesh, high flesh/seed ratio and very sweet flavour. Earliest variety to ripen. Thinning fruit will enhance fruit size. The Nagasakiwase often has 2 crops a year in the subtropics. The first crop in April / May then again in August. We have found by cincturing in summer, the August crop has a much larger crop and better fruit size.

Chinese Red Bayberry

$79.00 ($39.00-$79.00 choose a size)

Fruit is typically a deep, brilliant red, but may vary from white to purple. Flesh colour is similar to outer colour, or somewhat lighter. Flesh is sweet and tart with berry flavours. Single seeded. Besides eating fresh, the fruits may be dried, canned, soaked in liquor. The bayberry is an evergreen dioecious tree with separate male and female plants. Our seedlings are not sexed and it is recommended to grow at least 3 to be assured of at least one female.

$42.95

A cutting grown selection with pink flesh. Excellent quality fruit for eating fresh or juicing.Young Guava Trees often tend to drop some leaves in transit, but this isnt an issue as they are very hardy and reshoot quickly.

Loquat - Bessell Brown

Plant was great value and a lovely size plant. I bought this for my husband's birthday as a memory of his childhood years when he remembers enjoying the fruit from the tree. It will suit our subtropical climate to a tee. Looks so lush, is frost free and is drought tolerant which are two good reasons I bought the tree.

Loquat - Bessell Brown

This plant is thriving. I love this fruit and had a tree at the previous house and missed the fruit even though I had to fight the birds for them. The new plant has lots of new shoots on it now.

Loquat - Bessell Brown

I purchased a Bessell Brown 5 years ago and subjected it to neglect. This year, for the first time, the tree has fruited prolifically and, as we are in the middle of winter, no fruit fly has attacked the ripening fruit.Big delicious fruits!

This tree growing well, but still no flowers ( Apr 11 ). I planted in a position with only afternoon sun, as I thought it may fruit in semi-shade. Still hoping as I love loquats.
