Soon this will mean an increase in the larger pot size stock we grow and a return to a greater diversity and quantity of our stock in native tubes. In this month’s stocklist you will see our range of species and our pot sizes. All stock is sun hardened and ready for you to pot on, plant out or sell on. We’re happy to send photos if you wish and let us know if you are trying to source something not on the list – we might be able to help! Cheers, Karen, Spencer and Sam For listed Wholesale prices – 200 or more plants, minimum of 10 plants per species. For 100mm, 140mm and 200mm pots – minimum order 3 trays in total.

  • DAVIDSON PLUM Davidsonia Jerseyana; Davidsonia Pruriens
    focus on DAVIDSON PLUM Davidsonia jerseyana; Davidsonia pruriens Part of an R&D program managed by the Rural Industries Research and Development Corporation Overview Davidson plum is a brilliant coloured fruit, dark blue purple on the outside and a deep reddish-pink on the inside. It has a juicy pulp and sharp acidic taste that means it is not often eaten fresh. However, the tart flavour and deep colour lend the plums to many uses in food manufacturing industries for value-added products such as jams, chutneys, sauces and yoghurt. Davidson plum Source: New Crop Industries Handbook The use of Davidson plum is widely recognised throughout Indigenous culture, although documented There are two species of Davidson plum used primarily for commercial information is scarce. Following European settlement production. they were sometimes dipped in salt and sugar obtained The predominant species is D. jerseyana. The tree’s natural range is from the settlers, but more often eaten fresh. sub-tropical rainforest areas from around Ballina to the Tweed Valley in The early settlers, meanwhile, used Davidson plum for far northern New South Wales, and around 30 kilometres inland from the making jam and jelly as well as a full-flavoured, dry red coast. This suggests the optimum growing area. wine. The fruit of the D. jerseyana has trunk-bearing characteristics, which Davidson plum was first written about in 1879 when the lends well to hand-harvesting from ground level. species was listed as an ornamental plant in the British The other species, D. pruriens, has a natural range in the coastal and publication, Gardeners Chronicle.

Received: 18 February 2020; Accepted: 11 March 2020; Published: 19 March 2020 Abstract: Selected Australian native fruits such as Davidson’s plum, finger lime and native pepperberry have been reported to demonstrate potent antioxidant activity. However, comprehensive metabolite profiling of these fruits is limited, therefore the compounds responsible are unknown, and further, the compounds of nutritional value in these native fruits are yet to be described. In this study, untargeted and targeted metabolomics were conducted using the three fruits, together with assays to determine their antioxidant activities. The results demonstrate that targeted free and hydrolysed protein amino acids exhibited high amounts of essential amino acids. Similarly, important minerals like potassium were detected in the fruit samples. In antioxidant activity, Davidson’s plum reported the highest activity in ferric reducing power (FRAP), finger lime in antioxidant capacity (ABTS), and native pepperberry in free radical scavenging (DPPH) and phosphomolybdenum assay. The compounds responsible for the antioxidant activity were tentatively identified using untargeted GC GC-TOFMS and × UHPLC-QqQ-TOF-MS/MS metabolomics.

  • Flowers, Inflorescences & Fruits 2020
    Australian Plants Society NORTH SHORE GROUP Ku-ring-gai Wildflower Garden Flowers, Inflorescences and Fruits FLOWERS In common usage the word ‘flower’ is used for both a single flower and a number of flowers grouped together, for example a Banksia spike. Closer examination shows it is made up of single flowers, all with a similar structure. A flower is the sexual reproductive shoot of a plant, consisting of a receptacle that bears the sepals, petals, stamens and carpels – the four basic parts of a flower. Broadly speaking, the parts are in concentric rings. Sepal: Makes up the outer ring, usually green and leaf-like, and in the bud stage encloses and protects the other flower parts. Collectively known as the calyx. Sepals could be free, wholly or partly united, they could fall early or remain as part of the fruit. Petal: Makes up the next inner ring, usually conspicuous, brightly coloured, to attract pollinators. Collectively known as the corolla. They could also be free, part or fully united giving rise to variety of types. Tepal: A free segment of a perianth not recognized as a petal or a sepal. Perianth: Usually consisting of a whorl of sepals and/or a whorl of petals, or two whorls of tepals. Pedicel: (stalk) of a flower, if not present the flower is sessile. Female part of the flower Gynoecium: the carpel (if solitary) or carpels of a flower. Carpel: A unit of the female organ of the flower, with an ovary bearing one or more ovules (female cells), usually a style (stalk), joining the ovary and a pollen receptive stigma of various shapes and size.

  • A Revision of Davidsonia (Cunoniaceae)
    413 A revision of Davidsonia (Cunoniaceae) Gwen J. Harden and John B. Williams Abstract Harden, G.J.1 and Williams, J.B.2 (1National Herbarium of New South Wales, Royal Botanic Gardens, Sydney, NSW 2000, Australia; 2Botany Division, University of New England, Armidale, NSW 2351, Australia). A revision of Davidsonia (Cunoniaceae). Telopea 8(4): 413–428. The genus Davidsonia (Cunoniaceae) is revised on the basis of available herbarium collections, field studies over its geographic range, fresh and preserved materials and previous accounts. Formerly considered a monotypic genus, Davidsonia is found to comprise three species; D. pruriens F. Muell., the type species, from north-eastern Queensland; D. jerseyana (F. Muell. ex F.M. Bailey) G. Harden & J.B. Williams, a known variety from north-eastern New South Wales here elevated to specific rank; and D. johnsonii J.B. Williams & G. Harden, a well-known but hitherto undescribed species from north-eastern New South Wales and south-east Queensland. Each species is fully described and illustrated, and the lectotypification of D. pruriens is clarified. Introduction When describing the genus Davidsonia in 1867, Ferdinand von Mueller referred it to the family Saxifragaceae. Later, when the Cunoniaceae were separated from that family, Davidsonia was traditionally placed in the Cunoniaceae, though Engler (1930) urged its exclusion because of the stiff hairs, alternate leaves, short stamens and exalbuminous seeds. Bange (1952) segregated Davidsonia from the Cunoniaceae into its own family, the Davidsoniaceae, and this has generally been regarded as a unigeneric family endemic to eastern Australia. The characters emphasised by Bange (op. cit.) when he described the family Davidsoniaceae were its spirally arranged leaves, non-endospermic seeds and epitropous ovules.
