Lemon Eureka Dwarf is a compact, evergreen citrus tree prized for its attractive foliage and reliable fruiting. Its rich green leaves provide a lush backdrop to petite, white, highly fragrant flowers that can appear almost year-round, adding both beauty and scent to the garden. Following the blooms, the tree produces large, bright yellow lemons with thick skins and a classic tangy flavour. The main harvest occurs from autumn through winter, with lighter crops continuing into spring and summer, making it a highly productive variety for home gardeners. For best results, fertilise regularly during the active growing seasons and maintain consistent watering through the warmer months to encourage juicy, well-formed fruit. 

Soil: Well-mulched, well-drained soil.
Conditions: Full sun. Drought tolerant once established and can handle light frost. 
Size: Height 2-3m x width 2-3m

The Macadamia integrifolia, commonly known as the macadamia nut tree, is a beautiful medium-sized evergreen tree prized for producing the delicious macadamia nut. With its glossy green foliage and decorative, pendulous flower trusses, it is both productive and ornamental, making it a standout feature in Australian gardens. From late winter through spring, the tree bears intensely fragrant cream-white flowers that hang in elegant clusters. These blooms are not only attractive but signal the beginning of the nut development cycle. Macadamia nuts are slow to ripen, taking just over six months from flowering to maturity. Mature nuts naturally fall to the ground when ready and should be collected promptly to ensure freshness and prevent spoilage. The harvest period is long and rewarding, typically running from March through to June. Grafted varieties are strongly recommended for home gardeners and orchard growers alike. Grafted trees provide more consistent nut production, improved nut quality, and often begin bearing earlier than seed-grown trees.

Soil: Prefers moist, fertile soils with good drainage. 
Conditions: It is a hardy and easy-care tree best suited to sub-tropical to warm temperate climates.
Size: Height 5-10m x width 4-6m

Peach Sorbet™ is a compact, bushy blueberry celebrated for its stunning, colour-changing foliage and generous crops of sweet fruit. New growth emerges in shades of peach, pink, orange and emerald green, deepening to rich burgundy and eggplant purple as the seasons cool. In spring, delicate white bell-shaped flowers appear, followed by an abundant summer harvest of flavourful blueberries. This low-chill, self-pollinating variety fruits reliably in warmer climates with approximately 300 chill hours required for best production. Peach Sorbet™ produces fruit while still young and is equally at home in a pot or planted in the garden, making it ideal for courtyards, balconies and small spaces. In mild climates, it remains evergreen, while in colder areas the foliage turns vivid red and purple before shedding in autumn

Soil: Prefers acidic (low pH 4.5 to 5.5) soils or potting mixes
Conditions: Be sure to plant in full sun with well-drained soil protected from high frosts and droughts. More tolerant of warmer winters - for best fruiting Peach Sorbet requires 300 chill hours - suited to areas south of Brisbane.

Smooth Davidson’s Plum is a medium-sized rainforest tree native to eastern Australia, prized for its soft, fleshy fruits rich in antioxidants and vitamins.

From November to February, it adorns itself with delicate pink blossoms, later yielding clusters of delectable purple berries, perfect for both culinary delights and winemaking. Fruiting extends from February to May, with some trees bearing fruit even until August in warmer regions. This tropical/subtropical beauty boasts glossy, red-to-green leaves and a slender silhouette - making it an excellent choice for a central feature or shade tree in gardens.

Soil: Thrives in moist, fertile soil; tolerant of poor soil conditions.
Conditions: Full sun or part shade. Protection required from harsh frosts and winds, especially when young.
Size: Height 4-8m x width 2-4m

Juniperus communis is a hardy evergreen conifer that grows as a small tree or shrub, forming a naturally neat cone of grey-green foliage. It is best known for its fragrant berries, which have been the defining flavour of gin for centuries. In fact, the distinctive taste of gin comes directly from the aromatic berries of this plant. When ripe, the berries are intensely aromatic, and the entire plant releases a pleasant resinous fragrance when brushed or handled. The flavour of the berries can vary slightly depending on growing conditions such as soil type, altitude, rainfall and temperature. This variation is one reason different gins develop their own unique character. Thriving in full sun to part shade, the berries can take up to two years to fully ripen. When mature they turn black, develop a leathery texture and are covered with a soft white “bloom” or dusty coating. Because of the long ripening period, plants often carry both green cones from the current season and ripe black cones from the previous year at the same time.

Soil: Adapts to most soil types.
Conditions: Full sun or part shade. Frost and drought tolerant.
Size: Height 4m x width 1.5m

The Acca Feijoa, or Pineapple Guava, is a dense, bushy evergreen shrub or small tree valued for both its ornamental appeal and delicious fruit. It produces small, oval, olive-green fruit in autumn and early winter with a sweet, aromatic flavour often described as a blend of pineapple, apple, and mint. Fruit is best picked when the skin turns a lighter shade of green and then left to ripen at room temperature to avoid bruising. The plant itself is highly attractive, with leathery green leaves that feature distinctive silvery undersides. In spring it produces beautiful pink-white flowers with striking large red stamens, adding ornamental interest to the garden. Allo Feijoa is very versatile in the landscape and can be grown as a single-trunked small tree, trained as an espalier along wires, or clipped into a hedge or rounded shrub.

Soil: Plant in well-drained soil, mulch and fertilise when planting.
Conditions: Feijoas prefer a sunny location sheltered from strong wind. This fruit tree will tolerate frost once established. Suitable for cold, temperate and sub-tropical climates.

The Finger lime, known as Caviar Lime, is a native Australian citrus that produces delicious and iconic edible fruits. The fruit grows in long slender shapes and is filled with small round pink pearly segments that appear like caviar. The taste is an exquisite sweet lime. Finger limes will begin to drop of their own accord, usually between November and March. It’s important to wait until the fruits have matured before harvesting, as this variety will not mature once removed from the branches. The fruit is beautiful in summer drinks, desserts, chutneys, jams, and marmalades. Finger limes can be planted in the ground as a beautiful specimen tree or in large pots. Being a grafted tree, our specimens will produce fruits immediately without needing to wait the typical decade for the tree to mature to a fruiting stage.

Soil: Plant in composted, well-draining soil. Mulch in spring and keep the soil moist in summer.
Conditions: Will perform best in a warm sheltered spot in full sun. Tolerant of frost and dry conditions.
Size: Height 2m x width 1.5-2m

The Trixzie® Nectazee Nectarine Mini Fruit Tree is a compact, self-pollinating nectarine bred especially for pots, courtyards, and small gardens. Despite its dwarf size, it produces full-sized red-skinned nectarines with sweet, juicy yellow flesh packed with flavour. Ideal for patios and urban gardens, this miniature fruit tree delivers reliable crops without needing a second pollinator tree nearby. Its naturally compact growth habit makes it easy to maintain in containers while still providing an attractive ornamental feature in spring, when masses of pink blossoms appear before the fruit develops. Best grown in a sunny position with well-drained soil, the Trixzie® Nectazee performs beautifully in large pots and small spaces where a standard fruit tree would be too large. Regular watering during fruit development and annual pruning after harvest will help keep the tree healthy, productive, and compact.

Soil: Adaptable to a wide range of well-drained soils
Conditions: Full sun or part shade. Frost and coastal tolerant once established. 
Size: Height 1.5m x width 1.5m
