Im yet to find another to turn it into a yearly harvest, but pashionfriut trees are available. Different again, but atleast deserts only.

Yeah your on a winner, they're perfect for balconies, patios and limited spaces. We're trying one indoors next to a well lit window and it seems to be doing well. Time will tell if fruits.
Another interesting one to consider if you want to get her something different is the native finger lime. They're super tough and grow in pots to about 50cm high. The fruit are full of little citrus bubbles like caviar. Great in summer salads. They come up in Bunnings pretty regularly.
