05/12/11 Frost: About My Edible BackyardWhy AmyinBrisbane1 Love's Edible Plants When we moved into our house in August 2010, I wanted a native plant garden and have created quite a healthy one in our front yard and along our back fence, with lilly pilly hedges to cover the cyclone fences we share with our neighbours. However, growing our own fruit and veggies is more appealing than ever as I have developed a real love of gardening. I've now started to plant backyard fruit trees to supply us year round. We currently have - Bananas- Lady Finger & Gold Finger My wish list is: - duo planting of Lemonade/Tangello or Washington Navel Oranges Comments* You need your own My Edibles Page to contribute Quick & Easy |

Lemonade Tree (Seedling)![]() Update: 4813 days 15hrs Comments: - Can't wait to try the fruit from this one! I've planted it in a duo with a Washington Navel orange. We have silty clay soil so I've planted them in a mound and mulched with sugarcane. Going well so far!

Pineapple - F180 (Seedling)![]() Update: 4876 days 15hrs Comments: - I've planted three pineapple tops into the garden to see how they go. They were taken from pineapples from a farm near Maryborough, QLD. The pineapples were big and sweet so hopefully this fruit will be the same in a couple of years time! They are currently planted among pawpaws & bananas and mulched with sugarcane. They are north facing so get sun for most of the day.
