FRUIT
MANGOES
The first of the good Aussie mangoes have arrived, with NT Kensington Prides now coming through.
TROPICAL
Watermelons and rockmelons are very scarce at the moment.
CITRUS
A great range of mandarins available, including Red Imperials, Sumos, Imperials and Afourers. The Sumos are particularly good this year. Lemons are abundant, while limes remain scarce. Kumquats are available, and it is still prime marmalade-making time with Seville oranges in season. Navels and blood oranges are also eating well.
BERRIES
Strawberries are great eating and excellent value, with blueberries also eating well.
APPLES & PEARS
A great selection is available, and all are eating well.
PINEAPPLES
Scarce.
VEGETABLES
ASPARAGUS
Aussie asparagus has started, although supply is still limited. Expect prices to come down as more becomes available.
BEANS & PEAS
Brussels sprouts are eating well, with round beans and peas also looking good.
AVOCADOS
Queensland Hass avocados are coming through nicely.
GARLIC
Australian garlic is available.
RECOMMENDED
Cauliflower, corn, kale and spinach are all great picks right now. It is also a great time of year for pumpkin, with plenty of varieties available. Dutch Cream potatoes are another favourite, especially for roasting.
FLOWERS
Ranunculus, daffodils, proteas and waxflower are all in season.
