Nectarine - Sunbob

$54.00 ($49.00-$64.00 choose a size)

Medium to large size for low chill areas. Skin has an attractive red blush over yellow and is slightly waxy. Flesh is yellow, firm and melting. Freestone. Ovate in shape, with a distinctive tip.Matures mid-to late in the low chill season. Harvest season in northern NSW is about third week in November. Self-fertile. Best in subtropical or warm temperate climates.Good flavour and firmness for a low chill nectarine. Suited to areas that receive minimal cold weather during the winter months. This cultivar should perform well along coastal regions from Sydney through to Nambour, Qld and in the coastal areas of Perth.

Mango - Florigon

$74.00 ($74.00-$79.00 choose a size)

Definitely the winner in the taste department. The soft sweet flesh melts in your mouth. The fruit has a small seed and virtually no fibre and great flavour. Considered by some to be too small for the market it certainly makes up for its lack of size with taste. Yellow skinned, excellent quality fruits. Sets well in subtropics. Moderately resistant to Anthracnose, susceptible to Black Spot. Average wt. 300g. (Video - Grafting a Florigon Mango)

Pluot Plum - Black Adder

$49.00 ($49.00-$99.00 choose a size)

Graham Richards kindly gave us this low chill Pluot Plum to trial from his low chill breeding program. First fruiting this season, excellent flavour and texture. A Pluot is a cross between an Apricot and Plum- however more Plum characteristics are present. The Black Adder has Purplish- black skin with an amber flesh turning a deeper colour when very ripe. Pluots normally require cross pollination to set fruit. Try cross pollinating with another Pluot or a Japanese Plum variety- like a Mariposa. We are currently assesing its ability to self pollinate and will update our growing advice with those results. Ensure adequate sunlight, free draining fertile soil for maximum yields and healthy productive trees. Being low chill, it will produce fruit where winters are mild but may still not thrive in areas with hot summers. Protection may be beneficial.

Dwarf Jaboticaba - Costada

$39.00 ($29.00-$59.00 choose a size)

A beautiful, ornamental tree that produces tasty, sweet fruit. Extremely rare. Is known to fruit in two years in the tropics and perfect for pots. Growing in temperate areas is experimental.

Lemonade Tree

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

This delicious, sweet, juicy fruit tastes like lemonade and can be eaten as a fresh fruit straight off the tree. The tree often has thorns and bears several heavy crops each year.

Peach - White Opal

$49.00 ($49.00-$54.00 choose a size)

White, melting, sweet flesh. Attractive coloured skin with red blush, over a creamy-white ground colour. Medium to large size rounded, slightly ovate in shape. Low chill for subtropical area. Suited to areas that receive minimal cold weather during the winter months. This cultivar should perform well along coastal regions from Sydney through to Nambour, Qld and in the coastal area

Peachcot Ora A

Yielded more than 40kg fruit this year (about 20kg fell off tree and was rotten due to rain) and more than 20kg eaten by us. Tree is kept pruned to about 2m high. No trouble with fruit fly now that soil is good and my edible area is kept well mulched

Espaliered, not sure if that or vase shape will work best yet as planted 6 months ago. Awarded with two fruit for taste test in first year - sweeter than apricot but not as strong as some peaches and doesn't go sour on multiple chews. The stone was sma...

The tree has been planted for a little over a year and has produced fruit in both first and second seasons. The first year the fruit was delicious, but sadly a combination of birds and strong winds meant that we did not get any of the second season fru...

This fruit tree is well worth going to the trouble of bagging all the fruit, as I find it tastes very similar to a Golden Queen peach, which is my all time favourite peach, and I'm also trying to espalier one.

Peachcot - Ora A

Grow like any other deciduous stone fruit. Spraying for fruit fly is a must. Prune and open canopy for good cropping. Water well during fruit set and fertilse early Spring. Seasol, mulch and potassium feeding improves vigour. Good flavoured fruit.
