Fruit Trees
Seed-grown fruit trees offer several advantages, especially for those looking to affordably scale up for larger projects. They avoid issues related to graft incompatibility and failure, and arguably make a more robust tree. Seed-grown trees also bring genetic diversity, which means that each tree is unique and may even produce fruit with novel flavours or characteristics, adding excitement and potential for discovering unique varieties. However, this diversity can be a double-edged sword. Mulberries and Persimmons are dioecious (with separate male and female trees) so only half of these trees will produce fruit (the females) . This lack of genetic consistency may be challenging for those looking for uniform crops but can be a boon for those open to experimentation and seeking resilience in their orchards.
These trees are all one year old, and are mostly in the 1’ to 2’ size. The Paw Paws are all smaller as they are slower starts.
If you are looking for carefully curated and selected grafted or cloned fruit trees for your landscape, I heartily recommend checking out Denman Island Heritage Apples and Tree Eater Nursery.
