AMERICAN PAWPAW (Asimina triloba) PB 10 60cm
SOLD OUT FOR THIS SEASON. ORDERS PLACED NOW WILL GO IN THE QUEUE FOR DELIVERY NEXT SEASON [NOV 2012 - MARCH 2013] This so-called pawpaw is actually related to the cherimoya, and is a great choice if you want that tropical taste but live in an area that is too cold for most subtropical fruits. It is hardy to -25 degrees, but fruits well even here in the north. A medium-sized tree that will grow in full sun or part shade, and bears smallish fruit [approx 10cm long] that are sweet and reminiscent of a cross between a banana and a mango - delicious and plentiful. You will need two for pollination.

SOLD OUT FOR THIS SEASON. ORDERS PLACED NOW WILL GO IN THE QUEUE FOR DELIVERY NEXT SEASON [NOV 2012 - MARCH 2013] This is a cross between the cherimoya and the sugar apple.

BANANA
It is not difficult to grow your own bananas (free from chemicals!) so give it a go. They fruit well when given some shelter from wind, plenty of nutrients (gross feeders) and water. When the bananas are ripe cut out the whole palm and chop it up with the spade and leave around the base of suckers for compost. They must be thinned each year to 3 or 4 suckers around each main palm. The number of bananas in our bunches is related to the circumference of the banana palm at the ground. If you look after your plants they will be large and have a strong thick base.
