Seeds for sale: Cystococcus pomiformis (Bush Coconut)
« on: March 31, 2018, 10:16:40 PM »
Much appreciated by natives in central Australia, particularly the Aranda people. Woody fruits up to 9cm in diameter; flesh inside is sweet, oily and milky, with a taste reminiscent of coconut, and very nutritious.



C. pomiformis seeds are tiny, round, soft, and have a short lifespan.

Shade tolerant. Dioecious. Fertilized by insects. Cannot be grafted or air layered, but comes true from seed.

Available for only a short period of time; get 'em before they fly out the door!

I did a bit of research and apparently the fruit is actually a gall caused by a scale insect?
