What are You Eating from the Garden?

$15/fruit tree is very reasonable. Did I misunderstand?

No. 15$ is the price for the trees the first time I checked but the 2nd year they were double in price. The berry bushes are 15$ now

dwarf trees will not survive a frost and will need to be protected.

I would just put it in the house

Grapes make a really good fence, btw.

Also they are an excellent shade from the hot sun

I dunno--I think only citrus trees are sensitive to the cold. Most others thrive in climates with a winter, just not MY winter.
Also, have you priced fruit trees online?!?!?
$15/sapling is a steal. That is Box store clearance price.
I bought my Magnolia Jane, now 14 ft tall and 16 in wide at the base with several leaders from the roots, was $9 on clearance, at WalMart.
Btw, it is native but Not native. Magnolias are native in the south, this is a hybrid, and I have not ever noticed any insects predating upon it.
That is why the Bradford Pear was so popular, bc insects wouldn't eat it.
It is Very invasive. I have not noticed ANY Magnolia seedlings growing anywhere under or near mine.
Just oak trees, from sloppy squirrel plantings, ALL OF THEM in the wrong places where I might like one.

This time of the year I like to have a big salad for breakfast. This morning it's both English and Lebanese cucumbers, mini red sweet peppers, and cherry tomatoes.

Peach Jam, sooo delicious!

Tomatoes - i picked some and left them in the greenhouse as it will rain a lot this week, much higher risk for them

You are not the lone ranger in that.

I got some huge san marzano tomatoes. Mostly they're green but 1 was ripe
