Avocado - Hass (A)

$54.00 ($54.00-$129.00 choose a size)

Most popular variety due to both its superior taste and excellent keeping qualities. Medium sized, pear-shaped fruit has an excellent creamy, flesh. The leathery rough dark-purple skin turns to black when ripe. H Aug-Dec. Hass is an A type variety and for good fruit set a B type variety is needed for cross pollination. Suggested varieties to grow alongside a Hass are Shepard, Sharwill, Fuerte, Bacon (if you're in a cooler climate)and Linda. Happy fresh avocado smashing.

Macadamia - A203

Medium to large uneven sized nut with white kernels. Upright tree with a slight willowing of branches. Medium sized tree.

Avocado - Reed (A)

$54.00 ($54.00-$79.00 choose a size)

Large, round , thick skinned variety with a smooth, green skin. They have a mild to rich flavour and have a good storing ability once cut and placed in the fridge. They are also a great choice for using in salads as they tend not to go mushy as does a Hass when very ripe. H Aug - Dec

Mandarin - Emperor

$46.95 ($39.00-$46.95 choose a size)

The fruit has a pale orange skin that is inclined to be puffy. Excellent flavour however the fruit can be prone to drying if harvest is delayed. Loose skin that is very easy to peel. Most popular mid season variety.

Dwarf Coffee - Yellow Catuai

$19.90 ($19.90-$22.90 choose a size)

A dwarf Catuai selection - berry flesh is yellow with a citrusy flavour. Trees are compact yet vigorous and highly productive. Makes good quality coffee. The variety was bred from yellow Caturra and Mundo Novo. Coffee has traditionally been grown in shaded orchards but Catuai can handle full sun and is generally planted at high density providing higher productivity per hectare. Is susceptible to coffee leaf rust and other common coffee tree pests.

Macadamia - 246

Bought a 203 variety and a Beaumont as well. Other 2 are doing great but not this one. They looked same quality on delivery. Maybe it's bad luck as I applied the same planting practice for all of them. It's still alive and I have done the micro organism spray and pre tilled activated bio char and volcanic rock dust minerals before planting all of them. Maybe if it makes it through winter it would look good.
