19.01.2022 SOLD PENDING A new batch of Leptospermum polygalifolium ‘Jellybush’ is ready! There’s 100+ here in forestry tubes @ $2ea. A native shrub to around 2m tall, quite hardy, pretty white flowers and great as bee fodder, producing high quality honey. Best in full sun and likes a good tip prune to bush out. Just message to place your order; pickup Atherton at a time that suits you!
17.01.2022 Melicope rubra ‘Little Euodia’ tubestock $5ea or buy all 10 for $40. This large native shrub is one of the hosts for the spectacular Ulysses butterfly and it also boasts pink flowers along the branches which provide nectar for birds and adult butterflies. Being the host plant means that it is one of the few plants that the Ulysses can lay it’s eggs on, for the caterpillars to then feed on. If you plant a few, some distance away from each other in your garden, it will encourage the butterflies to fly around from bush to bush so you can admire them! Height 3 - 6m.
16.01.2022 Melaleuca alternifolia ‘Tea Tree’, bushy shrub to 5m tall, likes a good prune and full sun. The source of Tea Tree Oil. 20 tubestock available at $2ea.
16.01.2022 Spotted Gum! Corymbia maculata tubestock $2ea, 80 ready now, more in the pipeline. This is a large, usually straight trunked gum tree, that produces excellent quality timber.
13.01.2022 STOCKLIST 29/10/20 Everything is in 130mm pots unless it says tubes Natives Aristolochia tagala $5...

13.01.2022 Aristolochia tagala ‘Birdwing Butterfly Vine’ $6ea or 4 for $20 in 130mm pots. This native vine is the host plant of the Cairns Birdwing (meaning it lays it’s eggs on it and the caterpillars eat it). In my experience it likes part shade and a reasonable amount of water. It’s advisable to plant more than one plant as the babies are hungry little fellas!
12.01.2022 Moringa oelifera ‘Drumstick Tree’ 130mm This is the last batch for a while - going cheap! $5ea or 3 for $10 (like pic #1) Moringa is a fast growing tree with edible leaves that have almost 10% protein content. Pretty white flowers are followed by pods which are edible when young (usually cooked in soups and stews). Second grade plants also available (like pic #2) $3ea or 5 for $10!
10.01.2022 Wow, who knew Tree Lettuce had such pretty flowers!?
10.01.2022 ALL SOLD $5ea or buy all 17 for $60! Diploglottis diphyllostegia ‘Northern Tamarind’ is a rainforest bush tucker tree, usually growing to around 10m tall. The flesh around the seed is juicy, with a lychee-like consistency and tart citrus flavour. Must be picked up by the end of the week though as we are moving!
09.01.2022 Another batch of 40 Dietes grandiflora ‘Wild Iris’ tubestock is ready! $2ea. Commonly used in landscaping and by councils as it’s a low maintenance clumping grassy plant to around 1m tall. Full sun or part shade. Fibrous roots so it’s good for erosion control and banks. Native to South Africa. Let me know if you’d like dibs on some!

08.01.2022 Did you know that we can grow gums to order? Here we have Spotted Gum (Corymbia maculata) on the left and Rose Gum (Eucalyptus grandis) on the right. In most cases they are $2ea and need to be ordered 4 months ahead to be grown from seed.
05.01.2022 Time for Dal: Shucked two buckets of pigeon pea (Cajanus cajan) last night, so now we have an extra 700g. Pigeon pea is very nutritious, high in protein, and fi...rst off I'll make dal. Shucking takes patience, which is why I'm happy to grow a large seeded cultivar from the The Seed Savers' Network. Seed of this tall-growing heritage cultivar are on average 20-25% larger than conventional pigeon pea sold as packet seed in Australia, and since plants take an extra month to six weeks to mature they have fallen from favour. The flowers of this cultivar are just as attractive to native bees of many species - mine were being being visited by fire-tailed resin bees and blue-banded bees on every warm day during winter. I recommend every school food garden should grow pigeon pea simply to discover which native bee species frequent the area. When it takes one hour to shuck one bucketful of pigeon pea pods, you really appreciate that 20-25% gain in yield per pod (and the value of machines). Over the years, from my own records, I know that I can grow almost double the yield of a conventional pigeon pea farmer...and this heritage cultivar is a part of that success :) Recipe: Buttery pigeon pea dal. See: https://www.foodandwine.com//buttery-pigeon-pea-dal-mitti-
05.01.2022 Rosella (Hibiscus sabdariffa) 130mm $5ea or 3 for $10! This fast growing shrub bears fleshy red calyxes (the earlier stage of the seed pod, before it dries out) which are used for making jam and tea. Height to around 2m, it is perennial, but often grown as an annual to get the best crop.

04.01.2022 Leptospermum polygalifolium ‘Jellybush’ Another batch of forestry tubes is ready, 60 available now at $2ea. A native shrub to 2m tall, the white flowers attract bees.
