Tropical Fruit Tree Fanatic Grows 3000+ Trees in Florida Home Orchard

[@GrowsGoneWild]

Every time I see a new tour of Bobby’s trees it get exponentially crazier 😆

[@treasuretreereynolds1764]

John, you are almost at a million subs! I’m excited for you. You have taught me so much. I believe you were the very first gardener that taught me how to garden 🪴 Keep on educating us. Appreciate you! 💜

[@igorjee]

Need regular updates every 3 years or so. Don't worry about making the video long. Will never get bored.

[@healthfullivingify]

Thanks, John and Bobby for opening your wonderful fruit tree farm via KZbin. John, this was a very enjoyable video for everyone aspiring to grow things. Bobby hits the nail on the head that the DOING, the BEING with our plant friends is the goal. The journey IS the goal. Eating the fruits is only the final reward; the mainstay reward is the actual practice of tuning into and helping the life manifest through plants.

[@peterkerekes4888]

Unbelievable amount of knowledge here. Thank you. 🌴🥥🙏

[@fratparty95]

Your videos have pushed my brother and I to buy and build our gardens. Together our properties have almost 30 fruit trees and probably 15-25 berries (blueberries,goji,blackberries,strawberries,boysenberry, grapes, currants, honeyberries etc, we also are installing an irrigation system for my brother and his garden. Probably a 1500 sq ft garden

[@GrowsGoneWild]

Amazing. Growing fruit has been very rewarding for me as well.

[@HarmonyHiveWellnessCollective]

What zone are yall in? I’m in zone 10a and I wanna grow as many berries as possible!!

[@Pepesplants]

Congratulations Bobby. You made it into the KZbin big leagues now.! Great to see you again.

[@kristofp72]

I never thought Bobby (who I follow on FB) had such a setup. I'm truly impressed.

Bobby is truly a fruit tree fanatic - just amazing in what he has achieved in a short period...all this for fun and enjoyment...

[@stevegorkowski3246]

Great to see a person that has the passion to grow food! I live here in Wisconsin I grow fruit. Thanks for the great video! It helps me make my garden better and it helps motivate me to finish planting the garden!

29:35. Notice the huge snake slither across the screen!

[@mecedes4000]

Yuh I saw that too😨

[@carolynmeadows]

and the kid in background

[@WondrousWorldsYT]

That snake does not look like any kind of venomous snakes. It might be a rat snake, which can help get rid of rodents.

[@lorirn714]

😂😂😂🐍

[@creativespaceslandscaping]

its most likely a black racer (non venomous native species), a great rodent and lizard eater!

Does Bobby have a you tube channel? The Fruitful Trees channel that you linked was a different guy than Bobby on this video.

[@dontcarejustwatchvid]

Don't forget a black racer snake at 29:36

[@edluna3402]

Well said Bobby. There is greater reward in the fruits of our struggles

[@SueLall1008]

I too love and admire trees! I think they’re just beautiful!! I even talk to them. 😊

[@derekmorris7128]

What a great video! Thanks for doing this, what an amazing garden and collector.

[@Braddy_Daddy]

I’ve been dying to see Bobby’s greenhouse. Great tour, John!

[@duriancacaoboy964]

Great video. I live in Clearwater Florida and have 1 remaining durian tree. Does this guy know where I can get fresh durian seeds that have not been irradiated or chemically treated? The seeds of fresh durian coming from Asia do not germinate or grow vigorously. Fresh seeds from big island Hawaii sprouted in 36 hrs and are vigorous growing. Mike from Florida

[@BurnedRemains]

I don't even know most of these. Very interesting! Thanks for the video John.

[@ngana8755]

Is that a poisonous snake at the 29:37 min mark? Also, there's a kid playing right by the snake. Wild!!!

[@pamb7560]

The snake is a black racer. It’s fairly common in Florida backyards. Non poisonous

[@PlantsAmore]

Good snake, black racer.

[@que5359]

Good FL snake…they do scare you when you reach for something and it slithers out though!

[@PlantsAmore]

@@que5359 Oh yeah, one time I was just minding my weeding business , deep in my thoughts and relaxing and doing the job then out of nowhere rushed through this snake … I screamed so loud the neighbor was asking if everything is ok 😆!? Ha ha

[@creativespaceslandscaping]

Wow and I thought I had a lot of plants, lol! But truth be told, if I had 5 acres like Bobby I'd be just like him 😄 I'm curious why the large greenhouse is so dark? I was surprised that it isn't brighter in there. And second question, what does he do with all the fruit he & his family do not eat? Compost? Or just leave it on the ground so nutrients go back into the soil? Thanks so much for a fantastic video and thanks to Bobby for allowing us a tour of his amazing property! Best wishes, Sheri 😊

[@lisarusso6618]

I had the same two questions! He talked about the sprinkler system but not the lighting. I also thought how it would be cool if he let someone come glean the fruit to share with a food bank. I get not opening up the property to others but one person could gather a lot to share.

[@matteochiacchio4618]

My durian got demolished by lubbers this year. In Florida… flowered good, started to fruit. Within two days lubbers came in and ate all the fruits…

[@fasted8468]

The idea of durian growing in florida blows me away

[@nello8630]

@justincromartie3136 I didn't notice that snake slither by on the concrete behind them @29:35 until you mentioned it. The little girl was only a few feet away.

[@johnnyharperscoutstable5386]

You can grow anything in Florida. We need more people doing things like this. Permaculture at its finest.🐸🍺🔪🔥

[@GoldenBoy-et6of]

Not plants that require frosts to fruit like cherries and apples

​@@GoldenBoy-et6oftrue and dormant (freezing ). Also the hot kills a lot of trees when there is no rain. You could spend a fortune watering everything. 73

[@dannydanial8792]

Nice collection of tropical fruit trees, im from malaysia and almost half of the trees u said i have around my house. I really hope all the durians trees can be planted outside coz they r really big trees, the pulasan n mangosteen also need more space coz they r really big trees 😊😊

[@lorenbush8876]

That was a great interview John, thanks. Paul from Fruitful Trees has done videos with him before but I think yours is more interesting. I think if I could I would rather live in a tropical place where I could grow what I want without the challenge, I've been trying to get God(Jesus) to build me a tropical island so I can do that, so far he hasn't said anything about it, that might sound stupid or unrealistic but I have had the privilege of getting to see and visit with God all the way through my life beginning with before I was born, the last time I got to see him and visit with him one of the things he told me was that he wants everyone who belongs to him to have a good life, he also asked me to tell everyone that he is alive, he is real, and he loves all of them, that includes you and all of your friends,family, everyone you meet, and all of your viewers.

[@SoCalRobots]

So cool! I only have 20 fruit trees and they are a lot of work already - but I am not retired so not a lot of free time

[@user-su5du9ln8r]

Incredible. I suppose anything is possible if you have sufficient resources.

[@lakebafondren5868]

OMG, Did you just see that snake stroll by @ 29:36? I didn't know that dwarf coconut trees existed. Hey, what kind of banana tree gives small fruits but produces fruits that have a very strong floral aroma? I tried some like this at work, but could not find the person who shared them so I could find out the cultivar.

[@Encourageable]

I found a mulberry tree on a trail that I run on (Tampa) - took a few cuttings but only one survived. That was about 3 years ago - now it’s already about 15’ tall. Seems to love this area which kind of surprised me. Big fat mulberry’s too - not many yet but the tree I took the cutting from was covered with them and it was totally neglected so I’m hoping for the same.

How about any nut trees? Almond, pistachio, hazelbut, etc. Maybe you can make a video about that.

[@pmfg875]

How about some chayote my friend! I wish you would do a show on organic plantain growing. I’m super interested

[@usmsci]

Before everyone in Florida gets too excited this location is in south Florida where chill hours are close to 0 and/or no chance of frost. A lot if these trees would die or not fruit in central Florida

He's just a collector. He doesn't sell anything

Mangosteen and durian should grow there in Florida .

[@kolapyellow7631]

Palmyra palm takes a very time to fruit.

[@johngjerry1892]

I got toddy palm outside 😂 how my trees love 🖤 outside instead what Bobby inside vs 😂lol I don’t think he is the first fruit if is inside grow and fruit ! I have those fruit already on my trees 😂

[@keywestalert6329]

Grow Paw Paws. They are native to the southeastern areas. Grow mulberries and everglade tomatoes which are both native to SE and fl respectively Try to only grow native to your region trees,bushes, and vines. You would be surprised how many berries, and fruits are native to the US.

The only way to avoid the soul sucking taxes of Florida is an agricultural exemption. If he doesn't have an agriculture bussiness license and a history of sales even if the tax assessor grants him an exemption it ccould be subject to legal challenges in the future. It is the history and paperwork of operating a agricultural business with he intent of profits that affords a farmer the protections granted by Florida's Right to Farm Act.
