Dwarf fruit in containers
It is interesting... in the UK when we think of fruit trees we think Apple,
Pear and Plumb, and sometimes Cherry. All the US answers to this question have referred to Orange, lemon, peach, apricot etc all fruit that we would regard as greenhouse crops. -- David Hill Abacus nurseries www.abacus-nurseries.co.uk I was kinda thinking the former myself. Citrus won't grow where I am unless you have it in a greenhouse with 24/7 humidifiers. I don't think I'll waste my time with apricot though. I've only known of one here that ever got fruit and that was only one year out of 20. Damn good fruit though. I was really hoping to do some sort of euro plum, a pear and a yellow apple. (or two of each if I can't find self pollinating) Since the concenses seems to be that the roots will freeze, and I'm too lazy to move them much, maybe I'll just rig the pots with heat tape and plug em in when it gets real cold? Thanks for all the responses and advice, Laura B. |
