Lilly Pilly is a hardy tree that can easily be grown as a great windbreak, hedge or garden ornament.
It produces an abundance of crispy pink/purple fruits with the same crunch as an apple during winter to late spring.
The fruit is slightly acidic and sweet and the tartness makes them perfect for jellies, jams, or cakes. Left to ferment, Lilly Pilly produce excellent vinegar with super fruity notes.
