Three Australian rainforest tree species collectively known as the Davidson, Davidson’s Plum, and QLD Davidson make up the genus Davidsonia Pruriens. Although the fruits are not closely related, they resemble the European Plum on the surface. All species are prized for their gourmet bushfood due to their delicious sour fruit with burgundy-colored flesh. The medium-sized fruit has a good acid flavour and when completely mature turns a deep purple hue, resembling a plum. Beautifully acidic, the pulp is a vivid crimson colour.

Common Name: Queensland Davidson Plum

Botanical Name: Davidsonia Pruriens

Bloom Time/Fruiting: 3-4 Years

Maintenance Required: Moderate

 

 

Weight 2.5 kg
Planting and Care

However, if protected from frost, Davidson's plum may endure cooler temperature zones. Being a natural rainforest tree, the plant does best when grown in a protected area of the garden that is somewhat shaded, has plenty of moisture, and is shielded from strong winds.

Special Feature

A high vitamin C consumption enhances the effects of chemotherapy medications used to treat cancer.

Uses/Benefits

The high fruit acidity and low sugar content of Davidson plums prevent their usage as fresh fruit. Instead, a variety of sweet and savoury meals, such as cakes, jams, sauces, yoghurt, and ice cream, adapt themselves to the acidic and intensely fruity flavour.
