Kakadu Plum, Gubinge

Rare, if ever seen, native tree producing powerful bush tucker fruit, known for its sky-high vitamin C. Also called Gubinge, Billygoat Plum, or Murunga, this hardy tree thrives in tough Aussie conditions. Grows naturally in northern Australia. 

Can be cultivated in Perth with extra care, such as less water in winter and well-drained soil and protect from cold winter nights.  One of the rare fruiting trees that need Perth's full force of sun.

The small green fruit is tart, citrusy, and used fresh, dried or as a medicinal jam ingredient. Loved by Indigenous communities for generations.

Collected responsibly and cultivated on private property in Broome.
