Re: need a fruit tree idea

No- peaches don't do well here, nor nectarines for that matter. Wish they did, I love eating them.

Do you get enough cold to grow a peach? Some yummy dwarf varieties out there. Peach trees are also lovely graceful trees if pruned carefully ie not hacked up.

Subject: [CHAT] need a fruit tree idea
Ok- I was going to try to plant another apple tree, but was advised against this by master gardener friend, as we have been getting warmer and warmer and apples were marginal here in the first place. So- now I'm on the hunt for a new fruit tree. Something that stays relatively small, has yummy fruit, and wants to be in my overly warm climate. Kind of wondering is something semitropical might make it here?? Ideas?? Jim- any input? Maybe a loquat? Would an avacado grow here (or do they just get huge?)
