Grafted Yeem Pay Wampee - Sweetest of the Wampee Fruit Trees

The Yeem Pay Wampee Tree is the sweetest of the Wampee fruit trees and is popular because of this reason. We discuss the best climates, the growth habit and the way it fruits. It is a large tree but this doesn't mean it can't be grown in pots unlike the seedling varieties.

Transcript of Yeem Pay Wampee Tree Video

Now this beautiful fruit is the Yeem Pay Wampee and this is the sweeter of the 2 varieties of grafted Wampees we sell and it's really popular for that reason. So like all Wampees it fruits on it's terminal growth so it hangs off in these great panicles of fruit and it's really stunning in full fruit. Now these are lovely and sweet they're a little bit like a grape in terms of the texture so they have that beautiful juicy flesh inside. Great flavour and it's a really hardy tree. So Wampees are related to citrus and they'll pretty much grow in the same places that citrus do really well. So if you've got a nice warm sunny spot even if you get a light frost you might want to try a Wampee because they are a really beautiful fruit and they give you loads of fruit as well so they are a great cropping tree, great tasting and grow in a wide range of climates. So Subtropics and Tropics they're perfectly suited to in Temperate areas down to about -2 to -3. And it grows to about 5-6 metres so it does grow to a fair sized tree and if you've got a small backyard you could prune it or even grow it in a pot.

Grafted Wampee Fruit Trees - Guy Sam

Guy Sam Wampee Fruit Tree

Wampee Fruit Trees are as "Tough as old boots" once established and we show you how well they can crop in this video. The grafted varieties like Guys Sam and Yeem Pay taste great and fruit often in the first season. When growing in colder climates just protect them while they are young because they can handle frosts once established.

These great fruit are wampees and that's what they look like inside. There a bit like a grape inside. This beautiful clear translucent flesh just delicious and as you can see they come off the tree in these great panicles off the ends of the branches and the top of the tree. and there will be hundreds and hundreds of fruit when it's in full fruit. So we have been having a good feed off this tree. for a couple of weeks now so it's certainly past. it's best but it's still loaded. This particular variety is the Guy Sam which has these beautiful oval bronze coloured fruit and they're a little bit tangy in flavour so there is a sweeter one called the Yeep Pay. Now wampees are related to Citrus but you wouldn't guess that by the look of the tree or from the fruit but this particular variety the Guy Sam does have a little bit of tang. Now if you want to grow a wampee you need full Sun and good drainage. They're quite hardy they will take a light frost. to about -2 to -3 and if you can protect when they're small plants they certainly grow much better and you will get it off to a good start but once they're established like this they're as tough as old boots so they're really fabulous backyard trees and a great tasting fruit and we all love them here.

Wampees Guy Sam, Lychees, Lolly Tree, Coffee - GTS

Most cultures use masculin or femanin language to describe nature. And Wampee Trees and Lychee Trees are Men. I laughed when I read the description of our Guy Sam Wampee Teee.

"Wampees are a handsome foliage evergreen tree grown for Summer ripe fruit with grape like flesh"

So here are my 3 young men From Left to right: Wampee Tree Guy Sam - Lychee Tree Salathial - Lychee Tree Bosworth 3


Carla bought in some wampees for the staff to taste which she picked from 2 different wampee trees that she grew from seed. They both tasted totally different depending on from which tree they came from. One was very sour but the other was very sweet. That is why if you buy a grafted Wampee Tree like the Guy Sam you know that when the fruit finally does ripen it will have that characteristic sweet grape like flavour. But when you grow it from seed who knows how it could taste. It would depend on how it was pollinated perhaps. Sometimes the extra money for a grafted specimen from a nursery rather then a seedling from the markets or a big outlet chain which might be cheaper really does pay off with fruit trees. Unless of course you want to breed the next Guy Sam or Yeem Pay.

Also in the garden this Green Thumb Sunday are my Panama Berries which most days are giving me that abundantly sweet taste. By far the sweetest berry you will ever taste hence some people call it the lolly tree.
And of course my coffee plant is full of beans and come June in Australia I will be very keen to finally pick them after waiting so long. (About 9 months from flowering it will end up being)
