Found a peach tree on the side of the road and picked 3 of the nicest looking ones. There were some peaches on the tree with more extensive damage. Are they safe to eat what do you think the foliage on the tree looked healthy.

I’ve had this mango “tree” for about 4 years. I grew it from a seed and it grew while it was in a much smaller pot and then it just stayed at the same height and would just grow new leaves. I transferred it to a bigger pot thinking it’ll help it but it shedded all the old leaves and started new ones but won’t grow any bigger or fruit.
It’s in morning sun for about 6 hours and then gets shade. I water it about every 2 days.

On/in a honeycrisp in the American Midwest. Fruit actually tastes good. But this little guy scurries out when I cut into it…

Can somebody help me identify this tree? Fruits are a little tard but also very sweet. I live in zone 6. The tree is very tall and fruits are so abundant they fall on the ground and nobody is picking them.

You just planted a fruit tree. Hooray! But now you wonder how you should prune it. The answer is ... don't!

Give the poor thing a good growing season before you break out the pruning shears. It needs a solid root system, and to grow roots it needs energy. Where does it get energy? The sun! via the leaves! So don't start lopping off leaves!

Most trees also want to be pruned during dormancy. Even trees that do not experience dormancy should get a growing season to establish before pruning.

The only time you want to prune immediately after planting a tree is if a branch is growing in a grossly odd and unhealthy way, like crossing over another branch such that they will rub in the wind. I get that you're excited, and want to set the tree up for success, but trees reward patience.

Pics of my nectarines. Planted last year in May, pruned lightly in January.

I’m planting fruit trees but most of them can’t be near a black walnut tree. I have about 10 on my property and I’m going to have to get rid of them to continue fruit trees in my garden. If I list on marketplace, would people actually come take it ? Is this something people are actually interested in?

Noticed the state of the bark when I pruned last month. I couldn’t get the google search specific enough to identify the issue. Does it mean certain death? Wondering if I should rip it out now or wait and see.

Grapefruit is a popular citrus fruit known for its tangy and slightly bitter taste. While many people enjoy the juicy flesh of the fruit, the peel is often discarded as it can be quite bitter and difficult to eat. However, the peel of a grapefruit is actually packed with health benefits that should not be overlooked.

I planted apple seeds from a Golden Delicious Apple and whats growing is an American Black Shade Plant with many clusters of green berries, this plant may be toxic. Ms Kim in Illinois.

So i went to go pick some apples and at the very top branch i saw this apple (the one in the image) it looks very strange, doesnt look safe to eat considering it looks like the crust on a jalapeño bagel. Is it safe for me, or my pets to eat? Or should i just throw it out

I’ve never had them before so I’m not sure

See title. Suggestions on the style/method/etc. are all welcome. I intend to use a chainsaw to cut the general shape then smooth out the edges.

By definition trees are larger plants and most are produced in high light conditions. Growing them long term in small containers in sub optimal lighting conditions is difficult, akin to producing a real bonzi. Just saying.

This tree was on our property when we bought it 3 years ago, and it seemed like it was already on the way out. This past winter we declared it officially dead, and I left it up to season so I could use the wood in the smoker. When I cut up today, I noticed much of the heart was very spongy. Anyone have insight as to the culprit? Im planning on replacing with a nectarine, and would prefer to not have a repeat.

My fiancé added a ton of fertilizer to the tree without diluting it. I suspect that’s what caused this. I tried to rinse out the soil several times over the last week ad nothing.

This fruit is very old. One of the prehistoric plants. Extremely tasty when ripe and soft. It can be produced from seed or grafted. You can wait up to 20 years for the first fruits.

So I’ve recently tried cosmic crisp apples, and they are the best I’ve ever tasted by far, so naturally I wanted to try and grow my own. But as I live in Mississippi, they will not ship one to me since they are only shipping them to Washington addresses. Would anyone on this sub who lives there be willing to let me ship it to their house and then ship it to me. Of course I’d PayPal or Venmo or whatever the shipping cost plus a bit extra for the trouble. Thanks
