TOP 5 Fruit Trees for Beginners!

[@championhomestead6273]

I agree with you about the trees. I would add moringa, plus you can grow it from seed.

[@kso808]

I have a fig tree. A couple years ago, someone in my neighborhood wanted some fig cuttings, so I allowed him to get some. Many years ago, I used to harvest them and bring them to the office at work for someone who liked them.

[@mildredpierce4506]

I hate the fact that some people think that every fruit ripens once it picked. Some fruit will get softer, but they do not always get sweeter. I grew up in an agricultural community and was very disappointed when I moved to a city and had trouble finding sweet fruit, such as peaches, apricots or plums.

In our sub tropical climate in Australia, x 3 Banana trees was my first I planted, Mulberry is the second tree we planted on the property. I dont have a fig tree though, might get one.thank you very much 👍🏼👍🏼

[@QualityGardener]

I really liked this video! I have pretty much all of them except Jujube, that one is on my buy list! Thanks for sharing this :) !

[@PrinceEyeAllah]

Passionfruits! If it's warm enough for them they are great

[@sunshinedayz2172]

Thank you for the information!💙 I 'm still waiting for my mulberry tree to wake up..🌱

[@benzworks8453]

Good video. Fig is next on my list, pomegranate also.

[@ZE308AC]

Pomegranate trees are easy to grow, and I get a lot of seedlings growing everywhere in my parents' backyard.

[@marisaphoenix1893]

Loquat is bulletproof too. Chilli is adorable 🥰

lol loquat is not bulletproof and chili says " I know"

I didn’t know apple is such a strong tree until i brought my little seedling grown from seed to a desert,it stays evergreen in the winter even it’s very cold here at nights and the winds are strong with sand storms,and it’s still doing well even after root pruning.

[@HungryHobbit12]

I have a dwarf mulberry that is growing well (so far). But then I read that it has invasive roots. So now I’m pondering whether to move it further away from the house. I will wait til fall and hopefully it survives being uprooted. I also have a crabapple tree. I bought it because at the time the website said it was compatible with our chill hours. It’s not. So I dunno what to do with it. It’s growing well but obviously not flowering, ever. Thanks for the video!

[@parvathitiruviluamala9870]

Good info Allen, thank you. My jujube is 7 years old, is doing well, but doesn't give me any fruit ! Any recommendations ?

[@chosen2030]

Great video as always. Have to say I'm really surprised that citrus trees didn't make your list.

[@qctropicals]

citrus don't do well in colder climates, top 10 tree to grow but not top 5 :)

[@chosen2030]

@@qctropicals That's really interesting, where I live in Mesa I am surrounded by citrus groves.

​@@qctropicalsI also like how you keep teasing us with how great the green mulberry is...how do I get on a list to come get one once they are ready for sale?

I'd give up being able to grow all stone fruit for the ability to grow citrus, avocado, and mango in the ground without protection.

13:35 you forgot the fish emulsion!!!

[@dirtsailoroff-road5580]

I have all these except for the jujube. I will say the peaches I have are very prone to insect damage in my area once they fruit. Do you get fruit from your jujube?

[@charliemagoo7943]

Does anyone know if Shangri la or white Pakistan will survive the winter at show low lakeside???

[@SuburbicultureAZ]

You should stick to Illinois Everbearing or Black Beauty if you want to get fruit. I think the frost would kill Pakistans and Shangrilas.

[@irisirene4723]

Sir i wanna ask about my jujube...it only bear flower but not fruit...only male flower and no female flower out...any idea what to do?

[@qctropicals]

get another jujube with opposite sex flowers?

[@irisirene4723]

@@qctropicals ohhh okay then so my tree is male jujube?

[@sheri023]

@@irisirene4723 the Li jujube is self-pollinating and will pollinate other varieties of jujubes.

[@SuburbicultureAZ]

With Chinese Jujube, need 2 trees, different cultivars. Li and Lang most common. Search online for the pollinators that your tree needs/likes.

[@qctropicals]

@@SuburbicultureAZ there are self pollinating varieties like the honey jar in the video

New subscriber here👋😄 My pomegranate tree is over 3 years old and has not given me fruit. Any suggestions? Growing zone 10b. Thanks in advance ❤

[@qctropicals]

no flowers either?. I wouldnt be wasting prime space on a pomegranate in zone 10b

[@Joel-McConnell]

The problem in my area is the gophers LOVE to eat and kill all of these trees. I have even had gophers kill 20ft. tall trees with 8" diameter trunks. :( I have to run traps and use other deterrents daily to try and keep my trees from being killed by the gophers. Then there are the ground squirrels, rats, mice and birds of course. I am lucky if I get even 10% of my fruit......

[@Free_Falastin2024]

Try to bag your fruit or meet the trees. It makes a big difference with squirrels, rabbits, racoons, possums, and birds.

[@BodarkMan]

Do you ever grow any native mulberries like Red/Texas mulberry?

[@qctropicals]

do they taste good?

[@AnarchAnjel]

Ive killed so many figs ilive near death valley though. But seems ive always gotten crap trees to start with like rootbound and rotten. My mulberries though are flourishing. Seems my figs burn up. Im 20 miles from death valley.. my wonderful pomegranate has flowers all over it never seen one with so many flowers.

[@qctropicals]

hall of shame candidate :) . Just water your trees, it's that easy. I can't kill figs even when I try lol

[@AnarchAnjel]

Btw i do deserve it lol

​@@AnarchAnjel Violette de Bordeaux? Did you agitate the roots before planting in ground? Adding mycorrhizal fungi helps with transplanting

You said right ! Fruit did NOT taste the same comparing those fruit which pickup from Your own tree and those fruit bought from the store, (any store !). NOTHING taste better than those fruit which growing on your own trees. Beside that need to totaled in consideration the Health Benefits eating fresh, delicious fruit from Your own trees. Enjoy !
