Kiwifruit Gold Seedling (Seedling)

Edward3's Edible Fruits
Update: 753 days 8hrs

Comments: -

Fruit is sweeter than the green kiwifruit so decided to grow a seedling (grafted and cuttings not available). First flowers in 2018 turned out to be female.

Also growing additional seedlings raised at home which flowered in 2019 - one with female and one with male flowers. Got some fruit in 2020 but lost to bush rats in spite of netting.

As a matter of interest, flowering in golden kiwifruit is a few weeks earlier than for the greeen kiwifruit, so can't get cross pollination between these two varieties. Also, the seedling from Daleys flowered earlier than my seedlings and so failed to get pollinated.

Planted: 2013

Height 2 metres

Growing: In the Ground

Qty: 5

Sun/Shade: Full Sun

Water Given in: Autumn

Pruned By: 40% in Summer

Pollination: No

Pest Control: Must protect from possums , bush rats and birds with netting. This is not working very well - the netting gets torn open, and I suspect the culprit is the bush rat.

I've been trying to add this Jaboticaba Tree to my page but for some reason it isn't allowing me to add it. I've had itfor a few years now but need to change it's position due to other trees shading it out. Still no fruit either.

Update: 1775 days 17hrs

Comments: -

Plant arrived in in Feb 2020 in great condition with soil still damp. Will plant this into a pot after 1-2 weeks outside and provide updates.

May 2020 - Has been growing well, flowered a few times in Apr/May, yet to set a fruit.  We will see how it copes with winter in Toowoomba - may have to bring it inside on cool nights. 

September 2021 - In 25L pot. Set many fruit, however dropped them all and lost all leaves over winter (Toowoomba). Brought plant inside every night last year, but did not this year. Currently appears dead. 

Panama gold seedling (purchased same time) have not flowered yet but have survived the winter outside.

This is not a forum etc. This is where you comment about your growing trees. Duh.

White Sapote - Lemon Gold (Grafted) 8/10

Amanda's Edible Fruits
Update: 2636 days 9hrs

Comments: - Scary tree because it wants to grow into a giant here. That's interesting because it behaved totally differently 700km north of here. Doesn't have any leaf drop here either. Wishing I had planted it somewhere else now, and had to cut down the second tree next to it because they were taking over. The roots are invasive so don't plant near pipes, walls etc...
Apart from that - it's dead easy to grow in our climate, is not at all fussy about the soil, the water, the winter - or bothered by pests/diseases. The fruit needs to bagged against Mediterranean fruit fly and the parrots and possums...
The fruit is beautiful - texture a bit like avocado and the flavour of lemon meringue pie, to me. Skin can be eaten also. 
Self fertile and a good cross pollinator. If only the fruit were bigger and more numerous.
I have to hack this tree back by 50% every 2-3years.

Sun/Shade: Medium Sun

Pollination: Self Pollination

Fertiliser or Organics Used: Any balanced fruit tree fertiliser I have around.
