We don't now but we plan to put in a Washington navel (dwarf) and an apple and lemon tree and dh would love to put a few more in the backyard but I am not sure what!!
I have an apple tree sapling that my brother gave me. He's keeping it at his place for the winter (it was already mulched in when he offered it to me). I can't wait to plant it! Especially since it looks like we'll be staying here for a while now
We have two peach, two apple, and one plum --- all dwarf. We need to get another plum for cross pollination. The peach trees had a few peaches this last season. All are relatively new.
We also have two old old pear trees that bear well, but are in need of attention. They have lots of suckers or small trees growing beneath them and these need to be removed. DH has other priorities, however. Someday I will go in with an axe or hatchet and do it myself. I know these small trees need to be removed or the old trees will suffer.
I am jealous of all of you that have citrus trees. I have 1 apple tree. When we first bought our house there was a wonderful plum tree in the yard. It gave us lots of sweet fruit.. It was struck by lightning I should plant another one.
