Papas Pepper@ Abundant Harvest Homestead is pretty smart when it comes to plants. He gives great advice. Good luck with your fruit. Maybe try sweetheart cherry tree. Just plan on a rise bcuz cherries don't like wet feet.
Great way to do it AnneMarie. I love the idea of lining your street/property with fruit trees. For the last few years my kids have given me gift cards for Christmas, Birthday, Mothers Day for my local nursery. I have lemons, limes, figs, grapes, mandarin oranges, cherry trees and blueberry bushes. My latest one and the one I was most excited about is called a ‘fruit Salad. 4 stone fruits grafted on one trunk. Peaches,plums,nectarines and apricots. Its was doing great for about 4 months but in the last month it appears to be dying.. I think it might have wet roots so I’m going to try save it by digging it up and putting in a X-Large container to see if I can bring it back to life. Saw another you tuber do that so it’s worth a try.
@lahusa6866 I can't get that kind of tree anymore here. It used to be called a fruit cocktail tree. Could you share info on where you bought it and how much it cost you. I would like to order a couple.
Ive heard of those cocktail trees years ago on a gardening site I was on but none survived. curious if anyone had one survive for any length of time. I want an apricot tree, but I couldnt find any apricots in the stores here so guess I will have to wait until next year. I also want fig and date trees someday but need to find those seeds. oh and pomegranate
you have a vineyard shirt on will you be growing grapes? My brother had taken a black walnut and soaked the bottom and with toothpicks just kept the one part immersed in water and it eventually sprouted then he planted it outside and babied it. as it got older, he would put all clean fish and dead deer carcasses buried and that thing grew like no tomorrow.
Papa Pepper has a knack for gardening! I’ve been trying my hand at propagating my pomegranate tree. Im not great at it lol. I get 2 out of 10 or 15 to take lol but I’m not giving up! I might try and propagate my nectarine this year. I forget what the method is called, maybe air rooting? Where you make a cut on a branch and pack it with moist soil. I haven’t tried this method so why not?! 😃
Will I'm growing tree's from seeds😊 some people probably don't want other's doing it. I didn't do all that stuff, I just stuck the seeds in dirt & watered them like anything else I grow, and they're growing just fine,put the seed in side a towel and hit with the hammer keep the shell's from flying all over😊
Do you split open cherry pits, too? We had 2 cherry trees, and one died. 2 peach trees are not doing well. Poison ivy is growing one on we. I think it's already dead. One nectarine tree. Husband backed husband truck into it. Johnathan apple 2 and one gala husband knocked 2 of them over killing them. Plum trees we have two of them. A pear tree which I think ut needs an companion. I want hazelnut ,pecan trees too. I'll die before we get a great crop of them all.
@BigDreamsTinyBudget so I better dump the soil I planted, get them out, and try to crack them open and see what happens. Afterward, I can plant the sprouts, then when they are like 4 inches tall transplant into individual pots.
Excellent video Ann.
Many thanks!

@glendabrekke5475 black walnut just need to touch dirt. They grow so easily. I cut down 7 trees that the squirrels planted last fall.
I wanna know how them squirrels grack those walnuts open! lol
This is a great idea. I will have to remember this for after we move so we can possibly plant some on our land. I know we want fruit trees.
plant them asap even if in containers until they are established cuz they take 5-10 years to bear fruit
@@BigDreamsTinyBudget I will have to start saving seeds

yes cherry pits you crack open and soak the seeds for a few hours then put in fridge in wet paper towel until they germinate
@BigDreamsTinyBudget so I better dump the soil I planted, get them out, and try to crack them open and see what happens. Afterward, I can plant the sprouts, then when they are like 4 inches tall transplant into individual pots.
yes, if the pits are damp let them dry out first then crack them
