Oranges

It is so strange to see such big fruits on a small tree.

Feijoas

We only have one Feijoa tree; but the fruits produced every year were more than what we can eat. This new variety is very yummy and sweet. Ripe fruits remain green in colour but they drop to the ground every morning. You cut them into two and use a tea spoon to eat them.




Plums

These Black Doris plums are very juicy and sweet.





Strawberries

The hardest fruits to grow are still strawberries because the birds usually get to them first. What they missed, the snails will have a feast!

Lemons

From just this one tree we made all our lemon tea for many years.

Mandarins

These mandarins are juicy and easy to peel.



Apples


This apple tree produces two types of apples, Golden Delicious and Royal Gala.

Tamarillos

This Tamarillo plant (tree tomato) has been very productive every year.
