Daleys Special Deals - Malabar Chestnut
$29.00
This batch grew very tall and we have had to prune to fit our courier boxes. They are regrowing, and will recover well. We are now overstocked and need to sell them ASAP. Also known as Saba Nut, this medium sized, fast growing tree is grown in many parts of the world. It makes a beautiful landscape specimen and an attractive indoor plant. The large white flowers are very fragrant, another reason to have it in the garden. Overall, this versatile tree is a handsome landscape addition. The seeds have been recommended for eating eaten either raw or roasted, however recent research has indicated that there may be toxic compounds present that are not neutralised through cooking. When roasted or fried in oil they taste like chestnuts or cashews They can also be ground and used as a flour substitute when baking bread. The young leaves and flowers have also been cooked and eaten as a vegetable, however no mention is made of this in the research. Production of nuts starts within a few years. The large, white, self-fertile flowers display spectacular clusters of 10cm cream-white stamens. The fruit is a woody green five-valved pod up to 30cm in length. The capsules that follow burst open when the seeds are ripe. The plant grows well in mild inland and coastal areas. The plant will tolerate brief exposure to low temperatures but won't tolerate frost. A frost-free location with some protection from hot, drying winds is the best choice for the plant. It will take full sun to partial shade. Malabar chestnuts are not overly fussy about soil as long as it is well drained. They are semi-deciduous. WARNING: SEEDS SHOULD NOT BE EATEN

This tree has been growing well for two years in Hervey Bay, despite much neglect. I keep it pruned to about 3 metres. The fruit is AMAZING! and the tree has fruited 5 times in the last 6 months (usually 3 fruit at a time).

This fruit tastes great wwith some cream and , surprisingly a little peper. It probably does the same thing with the rollinia that it does with strawwberries. You know, bring out the flavour?

I have several seedlings growing strongly here in a high and rather cool part of Sydney - and there is a tree in the Syddney Botanical Gardens that fruits well every year.
