These avocado's were the first we planted. Unfortunately they didnt survive probably due to root rot which we now have under control | ![]() |
| These are the new avocado trees we planted after the first lot died.The look healthy at the moment and are just about to flower. | ||
| This is a seedling we raised from a bought avocado!!! It seems to be doing better than the grafted variety, so we'll have to wait and see. |
| The mangoes seem to be doing alright considering they are a tropical tree. The leaves got cold burn the other night. At least they havent started their spring growth yet or the damage might have been a lot worse. It snowed down south so it got pretty cold that night. |
|
| This is the first mango we planted and it looks like it might have its roots down now. We're hoping for some fruit soon. Cassie "superdog" Negus is currently doing her bird scaring diploma.Yes, Cassie is an intergral part of the Lightning Ridge team. |
| The macadamia nut trees are the latest addition to the orchard. On the left is the first one we bought. Quite a prickly tree with "holly" like leaves | ||
| The macadamia grove? looks nice and clean and new. I hope in a few years it will look nice and clean and full of nuts!!! | ||
