About My Edible Backyard

Why Daniuel Love's Edible Plants

I found the sunniest section of my property, ripped up the lawn and put in raised beds. I surrounded the beds with fruit trees and have planted others all over the property. I just wish I had more space! I also keep bees and chickens. As the garden had been badly neglected, I have spread about 250 bags of various manures through the garden beds. After a year, I have started to see worms when I dig. I have just put about 20 cu m of chipped trees through my garden as mulch. It came from some trees next door. About a third of it was palm trees, and they ended up in the chook pen. I have also installed a 12 sector automatic watering system and a fertigator (fertiliser injector) through which I regularly inject a very dilute mixture of worm juice from my worm farm, seaweed extract, fish emulsion, humic acid and plant growth stimulants. I hope to see my plants benefit greatly from this. Several bandicoots and a blue-tongue lizard live on the property. I now also have lots of birds visiting every day, but it has taken over a year for that to happen as they all seemed terrified when we first moved in.

What type of chooks - I've got some silkies and belgiums, wouldn't be without them.

Daniuel says... [5267 days 24hrs ago]

I have 5 Isa Browns - friendly, easy-going and very good layers. They have a nice yard about 8m x 8m with lots of bushes and newly planted fruit trees, and now a deep mulch of chipped palms which they just love to scratch in and turn over.

Had a few flowers on it when it arrived, but quickly lost them, then its leaves, then died as weather got colder in Autumn and Winter. Replaced the plant with a new one in Spring. Not looking too happy either, but hoping it will pick up and survive in the warm weather..

Growing strongly from the time it was planted. Started to flower a few weeks ago, about 4 months after planting. Didn't set any fruit. 2 nights of frost set it back as it lost all of its leaves, but is now growing well at the start of spring. Have read that I might need both a male and a female plant for fruit. Daley's should have made this clear in their description. Have had to buy a second tree. Second tree growing well.

Comments: - Grew very quickly. Very spiky leaves and multiple stems. Flowering since mid-summer but has not set fruit yet. Daleys told me it can flower for months before it actually sets fruit. I look at it every day to see if the first fruit has arrived. 6 months llater it is still flowering like crazy but still not one fruit has set. Plant is vigorous and healthy - looks very happy where it is.

A bit slow to get going but has been growing steadily. Will get more direct sun as it grows and clears the partial shade of the nearby garden shed and a palm tree. Just noticed that a number of flowers have formed. Windy conditions caused loss of all but one fruit. Plant growing well, still holding on to its one growing fruit an now flowering again.

Yacon - Apple of the Earth (Seedling)

Daniuel's Edible Fruits
Update: 5177 days 9hrs

Comments: -

Planted in new raised beds of organic soil with loads of manure and blood & bone, trace elements, potash etc. Watered every day by watering system, but still wilts a little on very hot days. My new soil has too much nitrogen, so I'm concerned that I'll get vegetative growth but few roots, as has happened to most of my other root veges. The plants grew rapidly and well, and are now flowering. Might need to wait for good roots next season when the soil has settled down and improved. Roots grew fast and well at end of season. Harvested around 16kg of roots from 6 plants. Will do much better next year as sol has matured and now chock full of worms.

I grew them in St Ives in very ordinary soil - and they produced tubers.

Had a slow start. First flowers were chewed off by cockatoos. Has started to grow properly now and has a dozen or so flowers on it. Waiting to see the fruit set. Lost all its flowers. No sign of any further growth, but not looking sick either. Will cut off top to try to stimulate futher growth.

Planted them in a very sunny and protected position. Grew very quickly and now, at about 1.5m are flowering for the first time about 6 months after planting. Was worried that it might not be warm enough here in Sydney for bisexual reds, but so far so good. 2 nights of frost - lost all leaves - then months to recover.

As suggested by Daley's, bought 2 pots for a total of 4 plants hoping to get at least one male. Growing vigorously. Major setback due to 2 frosty nigjhts which we have never had before. The plants lost a lot of top leaves but are recovering well. Seem to have had bad luck - all 4 seem to be female, so have no male to polinate them. Need to order another pot to try to get a male.

Hi. I have this tree planted in the ground in full sun and it is indeed a very slow growing tree but doing well. Watch out for 2 problems - small black mites which damage leaves, and occasionally a large caterpillar which can strip leaves very quickly.

Seems to have settled in since planting, and has had several growth spurts. Has one tiny fruit on it at planting, but it dropped off. I hope to get fruit next season.
