Product Details

Gumbi Gumbi is an important indigenous medicine plant. This attractive native Australian plant is also called native apricot due to its ripe orange fruits, which are not eaten. Gumbi is a small tree or shrub with a weeping habit. Once established the plant will tolerate both frost and drought. Plant in full sun/part shade in well drained soil, or keep your Gumbi in a pot.

The fresh or dried leaves can be used to make a tea, using one or two leaves per cup of boiling water. This is a strong herb so use sparingly unless you are under the care of a trained herbalist.

There are a limited number of these plants for sale in 50mm square tubes.

The young plant benefits from staking.

Pittosporum angustifolium is also called; Weeping Pittosporum, Gumbi Gumbi, Gumby Gumby, Native apricot
