Fruit Trees

When I was a little girl, I didnt see a lot of fruit trees other than ones that grew apples. This is because of where I live.

Immortality lies not in the things you leave behind, but in the people your life has touched.

We have short summers and very cold winters. This means that most types of these trees will not survive here. They may grow just fine, but they would never have the time to produce their fruit before the cold comes and kills the growth. However, that does not mean that there are not some fruits around that will survive, even if it means you have to move them in the house.

Most people do not want to have fruit trees growing in their home. They are large and need a lot of light and space. However, there are some miniature fruit trees that you can find in various places. I remember a friend of my mother that had a few miniature orange trees in her house. I dont know the proper name for them, but they were tiny and the fruit tasted great once they were ripe.

It's kind of fun to do the impossible.

They needed sunlight and water, but they never got very big. That was not ideal for an outdoor plant, but was prefect for something inside.

If you live where oranges wont grow, you still have options for other fruit trees. Apples are very common in the north, and there are all different types of apple that can be grown. There are also pear trees. Most dont think about growing pears for fruit trees, but you havent had a pear until you have had one fresh from the tree. I do know someone who tried to have peach trees, but I am not sure how that worked out for her, or if they have enough time to ripen in the northern part of the US.

If you are looking for fruit trees, your local garden center should be able to help you find what you need. They can tell you what types of fruit trees you can have, and how to care for them. Some have special planting requirements, and others might need to be trimmed a certain number of times during the year. Just remember that though they are great to have, you do have to keep up with them. If you have apples falling out in your yard, you will have to keep them picked up for mowing purposes. If you dont mind the work, you can have your own supply of fresh fruit each fall.

You can walk and talk and now that you're TWO, it's so much fun to play with you.
