Default exotic edible nursery (zone 7)

I am trying to find an affordable source for the more exotic edibles such as
asian pears, persimmons, kiwis, paw paws, etc. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Hannah

I have found that their prices aren't great, though. I discovered "Hidden
Springs" Nursery in TN, and I'm in love. They don't have much of a web
presence but if you google you can find an old catalog of theirs.
Thanks for the suggestion!

Do you have an address so we can write for a catalog?

Thanks, Dianna

When I was trying to decide on what to plant in my yard in
the spring, they appeared to have the best variety. I can
not judge their product as I have yet to order items, just
how their catalog compares.

I have ordered several trees from raintree and have been satisfied. One
died and they replaced it. The rest have done very well, except for late
frost, and have been producing. When you order your pears, be sure and get
two different kinds that bloom at the same time. Their staff can help you
with that.

Here is their Garden Watchdog report (which I believe contains a link to
their old catalog and contact info). Their new catalog is not yet out.
