My nursery has some minature stonefruit trees surrounded by stock... peaches and nectarines...apparantly they will grow well surrounded by a large tub.
Anyone have any experience with these?...They are thoroughly expensive and I dont want to spend a fortune if they are no good.
Answers: We hold dwarf peach and nectarine trees in big pots, they suffer normal size fruit and are much easier to direct pests on. Have a good look around at adjectives the nurseries/garden shops near where on earth you live so you can get the best price, I'm sure we didn't reward much more for our dwarfs then we did for universal size trees. Be sure to check what root stock they are on as certain root stock is unsuitable for indubitable areas and for growing in pots.
I enjoy a miniature peach tree. It is five or six years old presently and bears a LOT of fruit. I needed to get another and go looking. Recently I went looking for another one. I found a exceptionally small one at a nursery for $165, yet I remember distinctly paying singular $29 for mine, at Lowes. Check some of the big box stores to see if you can get a better matter. But don't shy away from the dwarf peach -- it is a wonderful tree! Everyone who goes surrounded by my backyard wants to know what the little tropical looking tree is - it is an interesting and unusual specimen. And by the opening, mine is only four and a partially feet soaring and five feet wide open after all these years. It is planted contained by the ground, not in a container, so I cannot support you about container gardening next to these. One caution I would furnish you, however, is that these are a magnet for little kids. The wood is very soft and is confidently broken, so little climbers need to find another specimen!
