The Photinia Red Robin is a fast growing evergreen shrub, with a dense habit that responds well to pruning. New foliage growth is a brilliant red in colour, changing to bronze-green as the season progresses and maturing to be dark green. Showy white flowers appear in clusters to be followed by small berries. Ideal as a long lasting hedge, a focal point shrub/small tree, topiarised, or in pots on balconies and in courtyards 🍂 #daleysfruit #daleysnursery #photiniaredrobin #hedge

A cousin of the mangosteen, the Achacha is tangy and refreshing, with a delicate subtle sweetness. A fine balance between sweetness and acidity, producing an unusual taste sensation. Fruit should be picked mature as it does not ripen further on storage. Originating from the Bolivian part of the Amazon basin in South America, the Bolivian name of the fruit is Achachairu and translated means honey kiss #daleysfruit #daleysnursery #achacha #backyardgarden

Compact and bushy, the Jujube - Chico is perfect for pots. It has a similar look and shape to a small apple. Pick when the whole fruit (or at least 80%) has just turned brownish red. The texture is crisp and light, and we consider it an excellent fresh or dried variety. Fruit size 35-45mm. Developed at the Chico institute in California, this is an early fruiting variety (Jan - March) Cross pollinate for best results #daleysfruit #daleysnursery #jujube #jujubechico #backyardgarden

Also known as the Drumstick Tree, Horseradish Tree or Tree of Life. Possibly one of the most useful trees in the world, it produces long green pods that have been compared to a cross between peanuts and asparagus. The peeled roots are used as a substitute for horseradish, and the edible leaves are highly nutritious. Claims are made that its tiny leaves contains 7 times the Vit C of oranges, 4 times the Vit A of Carrots, 4 times the Calcium of milk, 3 times the Potassium of bananas, and 2 times the protein of yogurt. The roots have also been documented as useful in many folk remedies. It originates in India and has spread in popularity to many parts of Asia, Central and South America, Africa and the Pacific. In Africa it has also been called the Miracle Tree with so many uses. This tree has delicate foliage and attractive pale yellow flowers. This slender, semi-deciduous, perennial tree, grows to about 10 m tall with drooping branches. Best kept pruned under 2mts to keep the leaves easily accessible for harvesting. The Moringa Tree thrives in subtropical and tropical climates, flowering and fruiting freely and continuously. Grows best on a dry sandy soil. Makes an ideal shade tree with high drought resistance. The foliage is delicate on young trees, and our potted plants are known for their older leaves to turn yellow and drop during transport to conserve energy. This is not a problem long term. With care and acclimatisation they will bounce back 🌿 #moringa #daleysfruit #daleysnursery #horseradishtree #treeoflife #drumsticktree

The Nagasakiwase Loquat is the best Japanese variety so far. It has deep orange flesh, high flesh/seed ratio, and very sweet flavour. Earliest variety to ripen. Thinning fruit will enhance fruit size. The Nagasakiwase often has 2 crops a year in the subtropics. The first crop in April/May then again in August. We have found by cincturing in summer, the August crop has a much larger crop and better fruit size #daleysfruit #daleysnursery #loquat
