Ours have all but finished.... bugger!
Quite pleased to get a second year out of them, the trees are quite small, have only been in for two years. They are the "Unique" variety, I recommend them

Yeah the commute will not be too bad, and the board is reasonable
Will gather a few up for you, be warned though, the tree is HUGE, and this year seems to be its on year. They are bi-annual flruiters I think, we get one year of tiny fruit and one year of big ones, looks like this could be your yearLast year I ended up gathering them up and giving them to the local bird refuge.
I love to eat their tangy little skins mmmmmmmmm
Mum called yesterday to say that she boiled up a big batch of feijoa chutney for me.
<3 you mum!
The greatest pleasure of my recent life has been speed on the road. . . . I lose detail at even moderate speed but gain comprehension. . . . I could write for hours on the lustfulness of moving swiftly.

Shame you didn't say something sooner - ours are all but finished now. I've had to clear the driveway of feijoas every morning for the last 6 weeks just to go to work. I've eaten so many I reckon I'm starting to look like a feijoa (always been pretty green and round anyway).
If it wasn't for a concise set of rules, we might have to resort to common sense!
i like them too
Anyone else agree with me that kiwifruit tastes like crap compared to feijoas?
I'd rather eat whole lemons rather than kiwifruit, and I often do.![]()
A few weeks ago I went down to Mum and Dads place in Taradale. Came back with a big shopping bag full of them. They lasted less than a week.
I just wish I had space to plant a tree.
And sorry sinfull, can't make this one. Should be at the next one (hopefully with a new toy), so i'm sure Alan will help you out. Would be a good change from Bananas for him.

A girlfriend once asked " Why is it you seem to prefer to race, than spend time with me ?"
The answer was simple ! "I'll prolly get bored with racing too, once i've nailed it !"
Bowls can wait !
How did i miss this thread!?!? I was just about to start a Feijoa appreciation thread lucky i found this. Im addicted to these things. Neighbours used to give us a lot but they moved and i don't know the new ones so i can't really ask! Our trees don't drop that many but you can often find me in the orchard with a spoon eating them off the ground
If anyone in Hamilton has any extra i will gladly dispose of them for ya![]()
