Hi everyone. I began planting fruit trees several years ago after moving to our current house. Our previous home had a wonderful Wurtz Avocado tree that my wife and I missed greatly after moving. So we decided to plant some fruit trees at our new house after we moved in. We moved from zone 10a to 9b. A couple of degrees makes a big difference.
We have 4 orange, 2 apple, 2 avocado, 2 lemon, 3 persimmon, 2 Asian pear, 2 bananas, a tangelo, mandarin, fig, nectarine, mango and plum trees.
I would like to plant a black Persian mulberry and more mangoes in the future. I知 going to try to grow some Manila mangoes from seed.
I enjoy the challenge of growing the tropical fruit trees at home. Unfortunately I still have much to learn and have a long list dead mangoes and avocados to prove it.
I look forward to learning from the vast pool of experience here and hopefully will be able to contribute with my own experiences as well.
Happy fruiting!
