BJ says... There are quite a few dwarves around, especially if you extend your search to the Torres Strait. Mua Island is supposed to have a super duper dwarf type. most regular dwarves still grow pretty tall in time, especially up north, just not into the enormous bean poles the talls grow into. Daley's advice is that they will grow down to Coffs along the coast. They can grow in Brisbane. I've seen dwarves and natives (long nuts) growing near town. Reportedly an obviously much more cold tolerant one growing in the western part of town toward Ipswich. Daley's sometimes stock them. Palms for Brisbane also gets them in in the warmer months. | About the Author Theposterformerlyknownas Brisbane 10th April 2012 9:22pm #UserID: 3270 Posts: 1552 View All Theposterformerlyknownas's Edible Fruit Trees |
Mike says... jf I know of the malay red,green and yellow types which are thin with small crowns and the giant dwarf which has a normal sized crown.The malay yellow is sometimes called orange and is the most common.The coconuts are better quality than the big types and they are a little more tropical. | About the Author Mike25 10th April 2012 9:23pm #UserID: 6829 Posts: 64 View All Mike25's Edible Fruit Trees |
John Mc says... My three dwarf's got through last winter, very well, outside in bonzai bags. They put on a nice lot of growth during this last coolish summer. Here's hoping they all get through this winter too and I'm just an hour's drive north of Sydney.. I'm happy they're surviving, and looking very ornamental. | About the Author JohnMc1 Warnervale NSW 10th April 2012 9:28pm #UserID: 2743 Posts: 2043 View All JohnMc1's Edible Fruit Trees |
