Fruit Trees

Description

What can be more delicious than picking a ripe, ready to eat fresh apple or peach off your own tree. Varieties that are excellent for the central Texas climate are peach, pear, fig, plum, pomegranates, apple and olive among others. While it may seem that fruit trees may seem like too much of a challenge to grow, paying attention to and following planting instructions, most fruit trees will flourish with minimum maintenance. These trees will produce fruit for many years and sometimes lasting into several decades.

The proper number of chilling hours, i.e. the number of hours where the temperature is above 32 degrees and below 45 degrees, are the basic requirements for fruit trees as well as deep soil, space and adequate water. Some fruit trees require a certain number of these chilling hours to come out of dormancy. Fruit producing tress will need full sun exposure as well as good drainage. Be sure to consistently water your tree after planting to insure it has a long and healthy life as well as many fruit bearing years.
