Gac

$34.95

A perennial melon noted for its orange-red flesh, native to SE Asia. The aril around the seeds is a deep brilliant red, high in the carotenes lycopene and betacarotene. Traditionally, it is much esteemed as a superfood and is cooked in a variety of ways to enhance flavour. It can be made into both sweet and savoury dishes. Green fruits can also be cooked as a vegetable. Vines are either male or female so both are required for the plants to set fruit. Unusually, Gac vines may change between being male and female and may change from one season to the next. Hand pollinating allows for a better crop. They are a very vigorous vine and grow to 15m in any direction and require yearly pruning to suit the trellis built for it. In fact pruning the vegetative growth will increase fruit size. Suited to subtropical climates, but can be grown outside of this range with care. Will lose its leaves for the winter in a cool climate. In tropical areas its vigorous habit needs care.

Keriberry

$23.90 ($19.75-$23.90 choose a size)

A supply of fresh berries in early spring when there is few other fruits available is very welcomed. The fruit looks like a large blackberry and has a flavour between that and a raspberry. A strong trellis is needed for support. Very vigorous. Weed Warning: This very desirable and heavy fruiting berry is a very vigorous grower. It can be easily maintained in a garden situation by mowing around the production area to keep down the runners, however if neglected and abandoned the runners will gradually spread through a large area and can be difficult to regain the balance. Grown commercially in NZ for years this beauty is capable of bearing almost all year round in warmer climates.
