I'm so happy you found it useful! When I first tried it I couldn't believe how easy it was, because some of the references make it sound really complicated. I was amazed that the tree knew to grow 3 branches each time, but somehow it just did and we get so much fruit from our pear tree people can't believe it.

Lono that is great! I am thrilled to hear you're growing a fig, they are fabulous trees. Remember that they like to be watered regularly. They don't like to sit in water, it needs to be able to drain away, but keep up the watering and give them some liquid fertilizer that's rich in Potassium (e.g. tomato feed, comfrey feed) over the Summer and they will love you for it.

I have a mini potted fruit garden in an appprox 3 feet x 12 feet concrete space, where in just that small space I’m growing Blueberries, Wild Cloudberry, Wild Currant, Wild Dewberry, Grape & Kiwi vines. Strawberry, Dwarf Conference Pear and wildflowers, Sunflowers, Melon and Tomatoes that are growing from my homemade compost. Although I have a wall for the vines to climb up a trellis on, and most of the plants are only a couple years old so far, so I expect in the autumn when I pot them up I’m bigger tubs I will have to spread them out more. But it is still amazing how much fruit can be grown in a small space and without a garden!, 🌻🌎✌🏽

You are so right! Anyone can grow fruit, and until you've tased home grown you have never really tasted fruit! I'm guessing from your crops you are in North America somewhere? You're so lucky to have all that wonderful sunshine. I'm in Ireland, and you don't get to be the Emerald Isle without a heck of a lot of rain! I'd love to be able to grow melons and tomatoes without a greenhouse! You're garden sounds wonderful 😍

@@amykellygardening No actually I’m living in England on the East London/Essex border, so a bit further south than you, I’m not sure if my Melon will get big enough to produce anything as it’s still only got the second set of leaves that come after the first seedling leaves. So it probably won’t grow big enough in the 2-3 months of growing season we have left, really I think a greenhouse or polly tunnel is needed to start Melons off early enough where I am. But I thought I would give it a try anyway, but my grape vine that is only in its second season has 3-4 bunches of grapes just starting to grow, my wild Dewberry has signs of fruit clusters and my Blueberry is loaded with fruit. But the other fruit plants I have may need a season or two more before they produce as they are all only 2 seasons old. I have a friend who bought some land in Galway 30 years ago to live self sufficiently, and he seems to be growing most of what he needs and he is mostly a Fruitarian, although I don’t know how much of what he grows is in a Polly tunnel etc, I expect a lot of his fruit is grown that way, and probably does better with Nut Trees and wild fruit that is suitable for that climate?

Peter, I'm so glad you found it useful! I envy you all that gorgeous sunshine, you'll be able to grow so many lovely fruit varieties that I can't in my chilly part of Ireland. Barrels make such beautiful planters, I'm sure they will look fabulous! If they are large barrels you can underplant, for example strawberries planted under the tree. You'll need to lift out the strawberries when you go to replace the compost, but they don't mind at all, and will love the fresh compost each year. If the barrels are too big to actually lift the tree out of the pot, try to just remove as much compost as you can to refresh it each year, and make sure you keep up the liquid fertilizer. Best of luck! 😊

@amykellygardening 2 месяца назад
Hello! I'm originally from Adelaide and yes you definitely can grow fruit trees! In fact you can grow things I can only dream of here in chilly Northern Ireland! Citrus will do well for you and are happy to be grown in pots, or you could grow stone fruit like peaches, plums, or nectarines. You CAN grow apples, but you'll need varieties that don't mind the warm weather, and they will do better in the ground than in pots. If you find a local tree nursery they'll be able to advise you on what is available. Being in SA you're in luck, no fruit flies to deal with, but you might find you need to protect the fruit from hungry lorikeets with netting or some bird scarers hung in the branches. In my childhood garden in SA we had Jonathan and Granny Smith apples, as well as mandarin (called "easy peelers" in the UK for some reason!), oranges, lemons, and peaches, plums, nectarines, as well as a Loquat tree, Mulberry tree, and a Fig tree that I still dream about. You're really lucky to be in a warm climate, but consider water needs of your tree (Mulch is your friend), and if you're growing it against a wall you'll need to protect it with shade cloth while it's a young tree. It can feel like there is a lot to learn if you're new to fruit tree growing, but most of it is just common sense, and if you don't get it 100% right at first, gardens are usually pretty forgiving. Good luck!

@amykellygardening Thank you for such a full and informative reply, Amy. I spotted your accent, of course hehehe. I am in Adelaide in the eastern foothills. Thanks for all the additional info. I will certainly take it onboard and try some fruit trees. They will be in pots, and I'll have to keep an eye out for possums, too! I think a good, well informed nursery will be key. Take care, and thanks again.

13:30 To avoid fruit trees producing good crop in one year and very little the following year do thinning of the fruit buds, that is removing a good number of fruit buds "say 50%" so you get fruit the following year, some trees are biennial even if you do that, but if you do thin you get bigger fruits anyway
@amykellygardening
@amykellygardening 2 месяца назад
Thanks for the reply! You're absolutely right that thinning fruit can help, and it's a pleasure to "meet" a fellow gardening enthusiast! In my experience the tree still has a natural cycle even with thinning, so I tend to just let it do it's thing and only thin the fruit as needed to ensure ventilation, ripening, and that the branches don't get snapped under the weight of the fruit, but you're right to point out that I didn't mention thinning in the video. There is always so much to cover! I'll have to make sure I do another video talking about fruit thinning and keeping birds off etc. Thanks for the great comment :-)

What happens when the fanned off branches reach the maximum length you have room for? Can you just snip the ends? This was really interesting, about the different codes and things and also about removing them from the pot and trimming the roots!! I thought you’d just have to constantly get a bigger pot each year!!! 🥴 I think soil type affects cherries. I’ve a great white cherry that several tree surgeons who came to my house to do other things (I’d never let them touch *this* tree!) have said is the biggest they’ve ever seen. It’s about 12metres tall and the trunk must be several feet circumference, I should measure it! I’m on heavy clay, he’s gone nuts!!! 😳🤣 I’ve got no room for any other large trees! I’d like to try a step over or espalier, they look so darn cute!!
@amykellygardening
@amykellygardening 2 месяца назад
You got it in one! Whatever shape you are using, once it gets to the size you want it, just snip off the end of the branches. Every year it will try to grow at those ends and every year you just cut it off again. It's all about regular pruning. The RHS website has really good guides for how to prune different varieties of fruit tree. It's worth taking a look at those. If you aren't sure. I will be doing several pruning videos over the winter so make sure you are subscribed so you'll see them. 👍

Can you plant cuttings from a grafted fruit tree , and plant into a pot ??
@amykellygardening
@amykellygardening 2 месяца назад
Yes, but remember a grafted tree is really 2 trees - if the cutting is from shoots coming out of the base you won't get the fruit you expect, and if you take a cutting from the top it will grow to the natural size of that tree, NOT the grafted size. For apple or pear cuttings use new growth harvested in late spring or early summer for best results.

If you could recommend an Apple tree for container growing for eating that would be awesome. Can I get different varieties of Apple trees that fruit at different times throughout the year?
@amykellygardening
@amykellygardening 2 месяца назад
Great questions! The best apple for your is going to depend on where you are in the world. If you're in America, Jonagold is excellent (but is NOT self-fertile so you'll need a second apple tree such as Gala, also excellent), or if you only want one tree get a self-fertile variety like Honeycrisp (red and very sweet). Queen Cox is said to be a fantastic variety, although I haven't had the pleasure of growing it myself. If you're in the UK look for Laxton's Fortune (blushed red) or James Grieve (Green) which are both self-fertile so you only need one tree. Apples all fruit at around the same time in Autumn, so you don't get a really long season, but some will ripen in late August or early September, such as Discovery and Worcester Pearmain which both famously have a slightly strawberry flavour. Others ripen September, such as Spartan (red), Greensleeves (green and self-fertile), and others in October, such as Sunset (green tinged with pink and self-fertile) and Falstaff (red and self-fertile). Some apples will keep really well if you have a cool dark place to store them, so you can extend the fruit season that way. I grow a variety Fiesta that fruits wonderfully and the apples from it keep well for months. The tree has a bit of an untidy growing habit, so is not ideal for a pot unless you want to train it, in which case it would be perfect. Remember to get a tree on dwarfing root stock, and if at all possible get 2 apple trees. Even "self-fertile" apples do better if they have another tree to cross-pollinate them (if any neighbours have an apple or crabapple that will pollinate yours as well). If I didn't specifically say they are self-fertile, then they are NOT self-fertile. Happy Growing!

The varieties of apples and pears I mentioned need a certain amount of cold weather to fruit well, but in your lovely warm climate you'll be able to grow LOTS of wonderful fruit trees. You should be able to grow tropical fruit like banana and kiwi, and if you wanted to grow apples, try varieties like Tropical Beauty and Anna. I'm sure your garden will be lush and lovely!

What is your opinion of the “Fruit Cocktail” trees that have different types of grafts on them? My friend purchased one a few years ago, and within one year, it began to produce fruit, and ever since, she’s been getting plums, peaches and apricots, although I do believe that an additional graft (I think for a different type of plum), failed. Also, your Espalier pear tree is one of the most beautiful things I’ve seen! What an absolute joy it must be to be able to walk into your yard, and pick a pear…from the wall! 🩵
@amykellygardening
@amykellygardening 2 месяца назад
The problem with trees where multiple varieties are grafted onto a single trunk is that they are all competing against each other for nutrients and water from the same trunk. Unless you get very lucky and all the grafted varieties are exactly as vigorous as each other, you tend to find that the most dominant of the varieties takes over. Trees with just two varieties are usually better than those with three or four, but there is no guarantee either way. Some people will just be lucky and have a tree where all the grafts do really well and you get lots of lovely fruit, but in my experience (a tree with plum, peach, and nectarine) over time the less dominant grafts get out-competed. My tree eventually just became a plum tree, with the other two varieties simply not growing fast enough or strong enough to get the nutrients they needed to fruit. In the same space you could grow several smaller trees as cordons/pillars and be sure you'll get fruit from all of them. Thanks for the really great question! That pear tree cost me £7 about 10 years ago, and it's been one of the best garden investments ever. You just wouldn't believe how easy it was to train, the hardest part was just attaching wires to the wall to support it while the branches were young.
