Coconuts

    1 responses

Town Farm starts with ...
Can anyone tell me which dwarf coconuts would be best to grow on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland. I inherited a coconut with our house however, the nuts never had any milk or flesh so it had to go! I was wanting to grown them on the waters edge of our property. I thought two different varieties would be interesting. Any thoughts? Ta.

Hi Town Farm,
Dwaft coconuts are a bit of a mith IMO.
They usually end up growing tall over time.
In the photo, I have Slade Point Dwaft (a local dwaft), Golden Malay and some unknown varieties.
As you can see, even the dwatfs grow tall :-(
They all fruit well and have good milk & flesh tho.

BTW, see the wallaby under the mulberry tree?(left of photo). They only eat the leaves, and keep it trim :-) For some reason, they seem to love them?
