Dwarf Coconut - Yellow

$74.00 ($74.00-$99.00 choose a size)

These high yielding precocious hybrid selections are best grown tropical locations. Worth trying in coastal locations as far south as Coffs Harbour as long as they have a warm sheltered coastal location. They will require free draining soil and are best planted deep with a deep organic mulch surrounding them. If you ever have to remove them, the heart is also edible and quite palatable.
  Special  

Acerola - Florida Sweet

$29.00 ($18.75-$79.00 choose a size)

This bright red cherry like fruit has varying tastes during different stages as it ripens. When fully ripe the fruit is juicy and aromatic with its acid content giving it a sweet acid apple-like flavour. The tree can produce a number or crops each year, making for quite a long harvest season. Our selection is called the acerola Florida Sweet Cherry and is a pleasant eating variety that is not too sour. The acerola is well suited to pot culture where it can be kept to a smaller size. It could also be grown this way in cooler climates where it can be moved to a warmer position in the winter. A word of warning the foliage of the plant is covered in tiny irritating stinging hairs that can produce an allergic reaction. When pruning your trees wear a long sleeved shirt and a pair of gloves.

Red Catuai is the main variety grown commercially in Nth Qld and does have some susceptibility to leaf rust and other common coffee plant pests.

It was doing well where I used to live. Then I moved and the sun burnt it black. Then I moved again and though it says frost tolerant it did not. It died. Good plant arrived healthy. Where I live isn't appropriate. Had to learn the hard way haha

When I transplanted it, I accidentally damaged most of the roots. Also, the next 3 days after it was transplanted was 35C plus. It was been watered daily and placed into low sun for 1 day (shade most of the day, maybe 1-2hours of full sun). I then move...
