What a great guy: a conservationist horticulturist and investor who understands his venue- and may make it pay well while enhancing both the beauty of nature as well as the lives of others.
Beauty, is an understatement for the tree. Watching this video makes me love being a New Yorker. Just witnessing slowly how New Yorker's are being more and more interested in the environment is spellbinding. Please maintain the orchard and don't destroy such a lovely history. Preserve it for the next generation.
Hmmm, I'm not an expert in botany, horticulture, agriculture or anything of this sort. But I do have a question for those of you that are - when you have all these different types of stone fruits grafted on a single tree and what would happen if they all bloom at or around the same time? Would they end up cross pollinating each other and create batches of hybrid fruits that can be inconsistent from one season to the next?
I love any form of grafting, it's time consuming and has been going on for year's.... remembers from my early year's in my homeland my uncle doing this but his was citrus tree's... his sweet lemons was a treat.
Oh, give me a tree, where the snacks are all free where the almonds and apricots grow I’ll pick me a peach, oh a plum’s within reach and you never have too far to go Fruits and nuts on one tree live together cooperatively If humans did that, then right off the bat being picked would be downright see dee
My uncle living at Victoria, British Columbia, Canada has a few fruit trees each with varieties of the fruit blossoming at different time of the summer. He has a plum tree with 4 types of plums varieties, an apple tree with with 3 or 4 types, and a pear tree with 3 or 4 types. It is a great experience visiting him in the summer! :)
can we talk? this guys experiment seems to indicate that you dont have to match the roots with the grafts, is that right? but wouldnt there have to be SOME relationship, ie "stone fruit" trees? or are all fruits pretty much stone fruits lol. I would LOVE to have a few trees and be able to have, say, apples, cherries, pecans, walnuts, peaches, and plums on just a few trees and have a good variety of fruits and tree nuts for my children... would something like that be possible do you think? I live in north eastern ohio and dont want to have to wait until my grandchildren are in high school before we have fruit and nut trees on our new property! How much does grafting reduce the wait times for harvest? Sorry tons of questions i know LOL.
Summer Noybn Unfortunately I am not the expert on grafting. My uncle is. All my uncle's trees only have similar fruits. My understanding is that you cannot graft pear onto an apple tree. Variety of apples can be grafted onto 1 single apple tree. If you are interested, I may be able to hook you up with my uncle. He would be able to give you the method and the science.

Sam hit on a lot correct things. Most stone fruit comes out of California now. Many varieties are vanishing. Why? Well -- at one time -- everyone had fruit trees. Every house on my block where I grew up had one or two trees. Most people do not grow their own fruit anymore. They either don't have the land, the time, or are just plain lazy.
I think this is just awesome please don't stop doing this it's just amazing what nature can do for us and you would think something like this would be funded because you can only imagine where this could take us.
What do you do with the trees that don't quite make the 40 fruit tree that you have placed in different places. If you have any trees that are not up to your standards I will very much like one! Or more. I have very limited space and a multiple fruit tree would be GREAT. Thank you
If you shop online you can find fruit trees that are shipped. It's not too expensive. I bought my Dad over a dozen fruit trees for around $130 a few months ago for Father's Day.
this is simply amazing and for years I too thought this would be a great way to conserve and bring beauty. I wonder if there is a step by step to an amateur to be able todo this in AZ ? if so please let me know.
Can you tell me how I would learn more about these. Like areas they'll grow,temps.special needs. special needs once they've started growing, do they all come in at once, can a person do this or buy them done by you, costs to both Maybe a pamlet? You've done an extraordinary thing here. Absolutely fascinating.What a wonder ful idea and a way to keep old species around. Also can you tell me what you do with them in snowy weather? If I'm to believe the preppers, gardeners, good weather men who care, we are coming up to the coldest, snowyest, icy solor solar minimum, which means, ice,snow, and temps.we haven't seen in our lifetime. Is there time to get more started? Will they grow in a sun lighted green house? Is there a way to build a sturdy one? Where are you? I'm older,61, but I'd help in whatever way I could. i cant seem to make the only 2 in my life, under stand & believe what's coming. Either way, if you choose to talk to me or not, I think you've done something wonderful. My mother had1 Eucalyptus tree & she took a cutting/ off, cut a slit in a branch Y joint, then wrapped them with Spanish moss, tied together. And it took off. I grew house plants, out door bushes, all kinds of things and I'd take cutting and start more. It was a wonderful time for me. This is so exciting. They also had red & pink grape fruit.comquats & loquates. I sure miss it. Any way, again, what a wonderful thing you've done. I dont have much, but I could donate a little to your project. Most Sincerely, and many blessings,Vicki 🌳🌼🌾🌿🥭🍎🍐🍑🍒 🐝 🚜🐝🐝🐝🌹⚘🌞🌦💕🙏 Happy Growing, filled with lots of goodies. Blessings, Vicik 👱♀️ 🙏
+tonyfalca Except in winter time, or cold weather countries and too warm countries, and for people that don't have a front/back yard, time to care for it or the money to get one to begin with. So yeah the supermarkets going to be fine, but for parks or public spaces yeah plant them and let people take the fruit for free.
entZEROspawn there are ways to preserve food, but, yes, for warmer climates you change the fruit to a fruit that is capable of growing in warmer climates. the lack of front- and backyards is definitely an issue, though, considering a LOT of people now live in urban places, and we both know that those living in urban places are often with front- and backyards.
tonyfalca I don't dislike the idea, I'm all for the idea, but there is a lot of restriction on exporting plants to other countries and making it work on a person to person level, but like I said a park with this tree would be wonderful. :)
entZEROspawn it wouldn't happen overnight. like anything else it would take time and work. i'd just love to see anywhere in the world something actually useful being done.
How can I get one of your amazing trees. I love your idea. The trees are not only beautiful to look at, but like you said. fruit too!. Please sell me one
I love this man . I'm an avid grafter wanting to do the same thing as all varieties are compatible within themselves . I've done many kiwifruit grafts with a 100% . I want to flood the deserts with food .
"In the midst of the street of (New Jerusalem), and on either side of the river, was there THE TREE OF LIFE, WHICH BARE TWELVE MANNER OF FRUITS, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations," Revelation 22:2
I'm curious about what happened to the original orchard of the New York State Agricultural Experiment Station where you gathered the grafting stock. Does it still exist?
I think these trees are difficult for a normal gardenowner, the place where ist grafted is very sensitiv and there are so many varieties of the same fruits because of the habitat it adapted or cultured for
Why just stone fruits? If you join a branch that is too different will it be rejected? Also how does this effect its survivability per zones and tolerances? Like if you have a hardy root stock, could the roots help a delicate fruit branch survive in a drought or winter that the fruit would not normally survive?
+Leonard Greenpaw. I think the genus has to be the same for the graft to take. I don't know if that's the last word, but all of his varietals are genus prunus (almond, peach, cherry, plum, apricot...)
Hur Guler It will If better-tasting fruits are used as grafts. I have a commercially-grafted nectarine tree which produces wonderfully flavored fruit, but unfortunately most of them get mildew and spoil before they ripen. So one has to carefully choose the varieties used to get good results.
If cities were really on board with this, all the golf courses, and ornamental plants would be dug up. These fruit trees are considered a nuisance because they tend to leave a mess from lack of care. I am willing to eat the fruit, but most people are not. People have learned to trust grocery stores and fear eating anything they pick themselves from outside.
well that and the fact that hes charging literally 30 THOUSAND dollars a piece for them LOL. Frankly i dont care what they look like as much as just having fruit for my children with limited land space!!! And you are right, they SHOULD be on streets, sidewalk trees should be multifruit trees and it should be ENCOURAGED for people to pick and eat the fruits.. bam, hunger in cities somewhat abated. But that would make too much sense heh.
wow, a whole lot of you have no idea how shit works, yet your sorry selves are commenting. Grafting works, 40 seems extreme but 5 to ten seems like it would work. the reason you do not just plant a tree from the woods, or even start from seed, is the pollination factor. most trees at orchards come from one parent cutting, a clone, and that variety is then cut and cloned/ rooted again and again and again. that is how you get a constant true variety every year and in many places. No telling what the taste and texture will be from the seed. Now this is not a bad thing either because new varieties or old ones can be renewed if you know the order of pollination to achieve the desired end product, pending on if the dominant and recessive genes all hook up right, a huge if. But ta say you cannot find the best apple from a pollination experiment is not possible is false, but def unless controlled you will never know how it happened. I have grafted trees right now, on dwarf stock, and I am going to add a few to them so from 5 it will be maybe 10.
I'll be starting to save some money so I can have one of these. Would be awesome I don't have to lug groceries around, just go outside and pick some fruit for breakfast. :)
I can't find a real picture of the pink tree that hasn't been all photoshopped but there are pictures on his website of all the different fruits growing on one tree. www.treeof40fruit.com/?works=2013-fruit So maybe the image is just a hypothetical of what these trees will look like in 15 years or so.

And in the earth are neighbouring tracts, and gardens of vines, and green crops (fields etc.), and date-palms, growing out two or three from a single stem root, or otherwise (one stem root for every palm ), watered with the same water, yet some of them We make more excellent than others to eat. Verily, in these things, there are Ayat (proofs, evidences, lessons, signs) for the people who understand. Noble Quran Ch 13 Vers 4
I understand that he has really grafted these trees, but why is everyone getting so excited over an image that is obviously photoshopped? The lighting doesn't change between the shots of it in leaf and in blossom and the branch architecture and blossom of the tree are entirely unconvincing. The photos of the real grafted trees are a lot less impressive.

Like he said, this is ART, not nursery stock. If your local nursery sells a tree for $150, and this guy is going to sculpt a tree for 10-20 years, that's not going to be something you can purchase.
Wom Board , you can actually buy one of his trees. I believe the price tag was around $50,000. That includes him essentially starting the tree from scratch, grafting new fruit every year and him flying to your location to continue to graft and prune the tree for years to come.
why aren't we funding this ?
This is the most amazing peace of artwork I have ever seen , hoping to see more of these around soon , great work dude

What's you starting scion and rootstock? Or at least what have you had the most success with taking grafts?
This project looks amazing, but the photos he's using look like they've been heavily edited in photoshop.
that's because he has only been doing this for 5 years so naturally there are no trees big enough in real life (yet)

It's an interesting art project. The question is does it make better tasting fruits?

Wom Board , you can actually buy one of his trees. I believe the price tag was around $50,000. That includes him essentially starting the tree from scratch, grafting new fruit every year and him flying to your location to continue to graft and prune the tree for years to come.
it would be cool if one could do this on the genetic level :D
why do we need this tree....
