I haven't a clue, but if you've got your heart set on getting one, try contacting Limberlost Nursery, Exotic Groves Nursery, Cape Trib. Exotic Fruit Farm, The Botanical Ark, maybe even Rare Fruit Council of Australia. It may be hard to find due to the battering FNQ has taken in recent years from cyclones - I'm sure many orchards/plantations/nurseries/private collections are just getting back on their feet again.

Cheena is a jack x chempa and might not thrive in Sydney.Good jacks are better and will handle Sydney weather a bit better.

Thank-you VF .yes i did try Limberlost,Cape trib, Botanical Ark and Rare fruit council in Mackay for over two years - no luck.

Yes, you're right Mike - but I do have a 'Golden nugget' and 'Black Gold' plants that are doing ok. I just thought i'd give it a shot.

Any clues as to where I can get the Cheena?

Many thanks!

hk27 if only you could get an amber,tekam,malay red and this great vietnamese one that could have been a cross I had last November with chums.Cheena is disappearing fast and I don't know anywhere that stocks them.If you get a galaxy it will make you appreciate the 2 you have all the more.GN and BG are pretty good types.
