Just because you have a small yard doesn't mean you can't grow fruit trees! In this video, I share 4 amazing fruit trees people with small yards can grow! These fruit trees have a small footprint, but they produce top quality fruit! You don't need a lot of room to grow fruit of the highest quality!
Many times, small fruit trees produce smaller fruits with inferior flavor. This is not the case with these trees. They truly produce full-sized, high quality fruit on compact trees that can be kept even smaller with annual pruning. And, of course, you don't have to have a small yard to plant them. Even if you have a larger backyard, these fruit tree varieties make excellent selections, because you can grow fruit trees in higher density and plant more trees in less space. In fact, I'm growing these trees only about 6 feet apart!

All of these are fruits I was thinking of, so the cultivars specifics are perfect timing for me. Thanks for all your awesome videos.

@TheMillennialGardener
@TheMillennialGardener 15 күн бұрын
A strategy some gardeners use is to grow early peaches. Early varieties of peaches often mature ahead of the worst of the insects and diseases. Late season peaches require more spraying, since they linger on the tree when insects and fungal diseases are most active. Al peaches require some spraying, but earlier varieties require less.

It's been in the ground since last April and really doing well. I built a small hoop house around it and have been heating with incandescent Christmas lights this past week. So far so good. We have had 2 freezes already getting down to 25 degrees last night. Hoop house stayed at a steady 47 degrees all night., At what low temperature do you turn on your Chiasmas lights for your covered citrus and avocado trees next to your house?

The temperature gets down to about 7F where ai live in central Alabama. I'm too far north for citrus trees, and too far south for apple trees. Apple trees will grow, but the fruit bakes on the branches long before it ripens. Peach trees will grow, but the soil (hard red clay) has to be dug out , and filled with top soil. There are three fruit trees that do well in my area, cherry trees, plum trees, and pear trees. Next March, I plan on expanding my garden by adding fruit two cherry trees, a Bing cherry tree, and a Coral Champagne cherry tree. If all goes well, the following year, I will add two Santa Rosa plum trees. The other night, the temperature got down to 25F, and it was a 13 hour freeze. It was too cold for too long for my peppers, basil, and zinnias. I've cleaned up the damage, and put my pepper GreenStalk Tower to bed for the winter, and covered my pepper raised bed with a t hick layer of chopped leaves. In the spring, I will cover the leaves with compost, and plant into it. All but three varieties of peppers will be grown in two GreenStalk Towers next year, freeing up raised bed space for other crops. I have assorted lettuces, Late Nagasaki Cabbage, turnips, and Pak Choi that I am harvesting from. My rutabaga roots are starting to develop roots, and my kohlrabi and tatsoi should be ready to harvest soon. My Danvers carrot, Purple Top Turnip, and Tokinashi Turnip seedlings are doing well, but I didn't get good germination from my golden beet seeds. I ordered a new batch of seeds to replace some of my older seeds the other day. My Seascape Strawberries are still slowly producing, so I am getting a handful of strawberries most days. My winter tomatoes-3 Early Girl-bush, and 4 Tiny Tim tomatoes are going strong. I'm overwintering my newly sprouted comfrey (8 plants) in my polytunnel to keep them growing. I'll transplant them into my herb garden in the spring. Next year, with the exception of my mint, spearmint, and peppermint, my herbs will be grown in ground. I have a mound of soil near my front porch that will be perfect for a herb garden. It will free up 8 grow bags, that I am going to relocate, and use exclusively for planting pollinators, zinnias, marigolds, and cosmos.

I disagree. You could definitely grow a Yuzu tree or the Owari or Brown's Select satsuma if you protect the trees like I do with lights and a water barrel. If I can grow an Avocado in-ground where we get down into the low teens each year, you can grow citrus using the same protection methods. Last year, when we got down to 14F, my avocado stayed at 28F, so you can do it if you're diligent like I am. If you're less diligent, Yuzu is hardy to 0-5F once established and would require more basic protection. The problems with your soil can largely be mitigated by growing dwarfing varieties like these on mounds. If you mound up the soil 12-18 inches, you can beat the problem. I don't accept the notion that things can't be grown. If I can grow an avocado tree and a Meyer lemon in Wilmington, NC, a lot of things are possible. We got down to 30 degrees Wednesday morning and I didn't cover any of my citrus or my avocado and none of them cared.

We have a Mexican lime and a Bonanza peach tree that I’m putting in the ground this week. Any tips on how far from a wall I should plant the base?

I recently started to get into fruit trees after watching your videos and just received my first trees from McKenzie’s! Amazing trees and customer service. But where can I get the olive tree and the avocado tree you showcased in the video? We were just moved from 7b to 8a this year and would like to try those if possible. Also, can those trees planted on the bottom of a South facing hugelkultur benefit from a warmer microclimate if planted in front of a rock garden as a heat sink?

Enjoyed this video, as usual, but I have a small quibble about your choice of the olive tree. Olive trees are so allergenic that they are prohibited in many Arizona HOA's(and whole towns). Perhaps a lesser issue , but if planted in the front yard, as you suggest, at maturity they can become quite messy with their attraction to birds, and dropped olives. Just something that folks might want to consider.

My driveway is south-facing in zone 7b. I have 10 feet in between my two-story house and my neighbor's two-story house and driveway. Would these trees do well there? Also, you are my new favorite gardening channel. I love your descriptions and encouragement.

I am looking to grow a couple fruit trees in containers. I live in zone 5b near Chicago. My plan is to keep them outdoors for most of the year but bring them inside once we start to see colder temperatures. Would you recommend any of these trees? And if so, what container size would you recommend? I mostly grow in fabric bags, but I have been gifted a few larger plastic pots. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!

Also i was noticing that where you planted your fruit trees along your fence it looks like you have a guide wire that your tieing your tree branches to. What does that do for the tree? And do you do that to all your fruit trees?. Great video.

For a non-astringent persimmon, it's fantastic. In my opinion, it's head and shoulders above the Fuyu types. I still think the astringent Asian types like Giombo are the highest quality possible, but that Jiro is pretty close.

I'm in Florida 9b and want to plant my fruit trees (dwarf mangos, barbados and Jamaican cherries, dwarf banana, brown turkey fig, Dragon fruit, dwarf Thai everbearing Mulberry, starfruit) in my small fenced yard. I've heard near south-facing walls, north-facing walls, 12 ft apart, 6 feet apart, etc. I'm so confused. I have a north (full sun), south (Partial shade), and west (can be wet in hurricane season) -facing fences to choose from. How far from the fence? How far from each other? I'm blind, and the research has been daunting to get these answers.

@TheMillennialGardener
@TheMillennialGardener 7 ай бұрын
No true lime is going to survive unprotected in Austin. Pretty much all true limes are tender to hard frosts. I'm growing a lime-kumquat hybrid called Excalibur Red Lime. That is hardy into the 8b/9a range and could grow in Austin with protection in the winter like I protect my citrus, for sure. However, it tastes like a mix of lime juice and orange juice, so it doesn't substitute perfectly for a lime, and the peel is sweet and edible like candy. If you want a true lime, you'd have to plant something like a Persian Lime on a dwarfing rootstock up against a warm wall and protect it with lights and water barrels like I do. It is doable, but you'll have to be diligent.
