My Edible Fruit Trees: Berry Trees NSW

Kiwiberry Seedling (Seedling)

Comments: - Planted seeds from fruit bought at the supermarket. Many sprouted and were initially kept in pots but were very delicate and only 3 survived and were planted in the ground. Now growing vigorously. Their sex is unknown, so have to wait till they flower to find out. Still no flowers in 2025.

Kiwiberry - Issai (Cutting)

Comments: -

Kiwiberries taste more sweet than kiwi fruit. The issai is self-pollinating so a good variety to try.

Got first fruit in 2022 but it dropped off as the plant is still weak. The same happened in 2023.

Cranberry (Cutting) ^8/10

Comments: -

Love cranberry jam, so would like to grow this plant. Plant growth is very slow and so only a few berries produced so far. Needs frequent weeding to reduce competition.

Heat wave condition in Katoomba in 2020 have killed the plant.
