if you live in northern europe or similar climate and are looking for rare fruits I recommend growing cornelian cherries and Japanese silverberries maybe its my own peculiar taste but those are really tasty and very resilient to boot, especialy against fungus if it tends to rain a lot where you live or if you have long winters you should give it a try
Thanks for sharing!!
Thank you…. Live further south in a temperate but very rainy climate where fungus is a problem.
As someone with mulberry trees (they were planted by the previous home own not me) mulberry roots can be quite invasive and can cause plumbing issues (by damaging the pipes) so you are better off only planting them in pots unless you want to go weeks without washing your hands or flushing the toilet and pay someone oodles of cash to dig up the ground in order to fix said pipe.
If your persimmon is astringent, just let it blet. Basically leave it out at room temperature for a while until it looks brown and mushy, almost like it’s rotten. But if you smell it it’ll be sweet and earthy. It’s kinda like when a banana turns brown. You can spoon it out and eat it like that or you can bake it, make ice cream with it, etc.
I can’t believe you didn’t start off with the Paw Paw. Native here in Pennsylvania
I am growing those in a cold part of Australia they are doing well and kangaroos don't eat them. That might sound funny to an American but for us they are a bit like Deer.
you named most of my trees! zone 6a here, i also have elderberry, aroniaberry, service berry, honey berry, strawberry, goji. my goumi, buffaloberry and loganberry died last year unfortunatly
Those are all great plants! What’s your favorite tree you grow?
@@PlantFanatics right now its all the 50-100 year old maple trees! its sap season! haha
I live in zone 5B so enjoyed this video. Just recently I decided to start my small home orchard. I have two white peach trees, three plum and two pear. This gives me more ideas. Will stop at 7 trees for now to see what I must do to care for these trees. TY so much.
they also have dwarf trees you can grow in a pot
The most important thing about Figs, is that they were likely the first thing cultivated by humans for food
Why is that the most important thing?
@@DevidYaldo buddy
Absolutely love this video.
I watched it last year and directly got everything on the list planted.
Some thrive more than others, but i´ve already got some flowers showing.
Great inspiration, keep it up.
Kadsura coccinea is also something interesting ive been looking into.
I have the Honeycrisp apple and the Golden Delicious...varieties that are so expensive here in Boston. I also have the 2 plum trees and Rainier and Bing Cherries. My kids asked me for a mulberry so I plan to get it. I also have a Persimmon Fuyu. All the fruits we enjoy
Golden Delicious is one of the best pollinators. I don’t like them that much as the flavor profile is less intense compared to a Honeycrisp or a Zestar, but plan on planting a dwarf one next year to increase the productivity of all my apple trees.
good stuff dude. love the pawpaw inclusion
Excellent video! I like these recommendations. Sadly, many fruit trees have become prohibitively expensive. I don’t feel like spending $40 or more on fruit trees, even if the investment is worth it. It’s a lot of money to shell out. I will look at your site. I definitely want to grow figs. Be well.
I really enjoy the inclusion of some species name information, great work!
Yes!!! Bring the paw paw tree back you guys?!
We’re certainly going to try!!
I love growing fruit trees
You and I both. Best thing to do ever. Thanks for watching!!!
I'm going to try growing a cold hardy tree this year wish me luck
I got American plum and beach plum there native to my area and there great but I never tried them you should grow them also crabapples like Dolgo or edible native apples are great and there native cherrys.
Thank you for the advice!!
Aweseomw! I live in Finland and have a hard time finding seedlings any of the more rear ones. I don't want to start from seed
One thing I have learned is that plants developed in a particular biome (ecological zone) will grow in a similar biome elsewhere. I wonder if any Greenlandic gardeners have had success with Russian Seaberry (Hipphophae rhamnoides), Arctic Kiwi (Actinidia arguta), or the Buartnut tree (Juglans xbixbyi). If you can grow potatoes there you might even get certain cold-hardy Oca tubers (Oxalis tuberosa) to grow as an annual as well.
Id e interested in find that out as well
Thanks
Hi ,we live in the high desert of Oregon and we have zone 3,4,and 5 in one day. Our first year here it froze on the 4th of July 😂 . Any ideas.?...thanks and GOD BLESS
Thanks, I need to look at getting a fig tree. One note, the voiceover was only on the left channel, which makes it harder to listen on headphones
Very informative! Which trees need a pollinator? I know apples and pears do, but what about the others? And what is the che tree fruit like?
Great list! Didn’t even know some of these!
american serviceberry, american pawpaw. gooseberry and if legal where you are, currants.
also? Beach Plums- native to american east coast.
you forgot about the apricot, besides, the plum has varieties that differ in taste, for example, cherry plum, blackthorn
Hi from Gardening with kirk
Great list!
Thanks for watching!
Very great video.
There are also American Plumbs
Hmmmmm fruit.
Would definitely omit Che Tree and put in Nectarine, Apricot or Jujube, Quince also being an option
This is only part 1 of a series. Not an either or scenario. 😀
Thank you for video
I’m starting a utah sweet pomegranate this year. Live in 6b
Thank you!🌹🍃
Thanks so much for watching!!
Haskaps ❤
Potential miss? Some American plums that come to mind: (New Jersey Plum, Chickasaw Plum)
I haven’t tried Che fruit. How is the taste?
Thanks, just note there's a mislabeling on the PawPaw you have them typed as Papaya......
No, it’s spelled correctly. Asimina triloba
as of now...6 out of 10 + I will buy pawpaw trees this year :)
Plant old fashioned traditional fruit trees. Such as old English greengage
Lots of apples grow in zone 3 even some plums .Anyhow I wish you put the zones in your title when you say cold hardy also sour cherries grow in our zone but not sweet. Raspeberries but not black berries and of course not mulberries
yeah I'm really tired of ppl saying something's for a cold zone and then it's just like fucking us zone 6 😑
Cold hardy generally refers to fruiting plants that can survive in zone 5-8. It is not relative to where you live, it is relative to where a majority of fruiting plants can no longer survive.
Should have mentioned Asian pears in the pear section.
What I don't understand like apple trees, why don't they graft couple types of one tree so it makes its own pollunator
Many beginner gardeners are initially unaware of how to properly prune an apple tree, and understanding the nuances of pruning a multi-graft tree is often even more challenging. However, I did observe an apple tree with multiple varieties grafted onto it during a visit to my local Home Depot.
The audio turns mono (just the left ear) at 0:47.
Yeah, who knows what I did. Haha
A ripe pear is delicious.
Hate to be a burden. Is it possible to say or make a video on the fast growing either from seed or cutting? I wanted to make a food forest. Thank you
Sounds like a great video idea. I’ll make it happen for you.
@@PlantFanatics your awesome! Im zone 6 so we get down to 9°in colder winters. Its been noce and hot in the 90s this past week. I ordered some black currant for the oils it has so hopefully that survives haha
I have one space that I have yet to find what I want to plant in it. So looking for ideas.
Zone 9
25x10 area
Full shade 5-6 hours of very filtered light due to two live oaks a fence and house.
Preferably a height of no more than 8 feet.
No blueberry or blackberries, I already have those
If you know of something that thrives in those conditions, I would love to hear any suggestions. It’s not easy finding something that meets all those specs. Especially the lack of sunlight.
Check out my many videos on great plant choices for you on my channel! I wish you the best of luck my friend!
Get blight resistance trees
Always a great option! Thank you!!
You can lose the background music
I don't think any of these will work in my zone 2a/2b
Unfortunately no! Do you have any fruit trees or bushes out there? I’m glad to have you here regardless! Thanks so much!
The University of Saskatchewan has developed several seriously cold-hardy cherries (Romance series) that have been grown in the Canadian prairies, which can be Zone 2. There are shrub and dwarf tree varieties, ranging from sweet to semi-sweet. Bonus: Most are self-pollinating! Varieties: Juliet, Romeo, Valentine, Crimson Passion...
@bradschertzing9204 Sour cherries and haskaps from U of Sask. Some pears and apples are good to zone 2, maybe plums and raspberries too? I'm planning a zone 3 food forest so my options are pretty limited too. :(
poor people
Please don't rely solely on pruning when it comes to size of tree. If you want a small tree, buy one that's grafted onto a rootstock that keeps it small. If you buy a fruit tree on a large growing rootstock and try and keep it small purely by pruning you will have very reduced fruiting and a lot more work! Heavy pruning encourages growth, but NOT fruiting!
While pruning does support new vegetative growth, when done properly it also helps push the trees into larger crops of fruit. Just because a plant has the label of dwarf does not mean its stature will be hindered by leaps and bounds. For instance, a dwarf apple tree that is not heavily pruned will still reach heights of 30 feet. Growing standard trees and pruning them at the right time and the right way can be an amazing way to keep trees small, productive, and healthy. A fruit tree that is not fruiting means the trees fruiting wood has been removed, meaning it was pruned improperly.
@@PlantFanatics You CAN keep them in check with pruning, but why make the extra work for yourself? There are rootstocks that will never let a tree reach 30 feet. If you know from the start that you want a small tree, then why make the extra work for yourself to buy one on a large rootstock? And there is no way to HARD prune a vigorous tree that will NOT hinder fruit production. It's just a pointless way to make your gardening harder and less enjoyable.
