I live in Yorkshire and grow pomegranates, figs, gojiberries, cherries, pears outside, and Javan plum, green chillies, and lychees Inside
Some good plants there. Have you ever managed to get fruit from the Pomegranates?
JAVA plums soun YUMMY!!
How do you like the gojis after a few years now? I've stuck with goumi. I've been hesitant on the goji.
Moved into an old urban house last year that had Strawberries and Raspberries overgrown in the tiny back garden. Cut them all back last autumn and this summer I have had a wonderful time harvesting beautiful big juicy raspberries and strawberries all summer. Really hoping I can add a lot more to my tiny urban yard this autumn!
Good stuff. Go for it!
You should try Meyers Lemon. They are extremely hardy. My father grew one in the Mojave desert where it gets 120 to minus ten Fahrenheit. He planted in next to the trash cans in a narrow side yard of the house where it had walls on three sides with a Southern exposure. It was sheltered from the wind as much as possible but it was out in the open. My father had a minor in horticulture but the only thing besides the routine fertilizer the whole yard got that he gave it was coffees grounds and and bones but when it got yellow tips on the leaves because it had exhausted the iron in the soil because it was a heavy feeder he would give it mircle gro and the leaves would snap back to jade green.
Not trying to belittle your enthusiasm but meyer lemons cant take more than 15-18F (minus5-minus 9C) for a few hours they die if its colder.
Can you send videos of that tree? That would be a scientific breakthrough if that really existed
Thank you SO much for your videos. I can’t find anything else regarding fruit trees in specifically the UK. You’re so helpful - THANK YOU!❤️❤️
My pleasure. Loads to come.
I’m trying to grow grapes and melons in a small greenhouse. I also have my own garden and half of it is my vegetable garden. This is my 2nd year of growing. Going to explore starting a food forest. Love watching ur clips, very informative
Excellent, keep at it. I am sure you will do well.
Great to see you enjoying the fruits of your labor 💪🤣 Another great and informative video. Thank you Dan.
My pleasure Tricia.
I have been growing cocktail kiwis successfully in the UK for years, outside not in a greenhouse. The skin is edible and the flavour is intense. The trick is to make sure you have male and female plants or to get self fertile - which is rather difficult to get. Great video, thank you.
My pleasure.
awesome - I'm just getting into growing my own fruit and veg - love the info in the video
Great stuff.
Great video Dan!
Cheers!
Brilliant video! Thanks for the advice 👍👍
My pleasure.
actually telling us what u grow instead of the usual "look at me" vlog. very informative.
That's it. Loads on my channel. Feel free to take a look round.
Just a quick comment. Love the video. I have never used anything but normal compost and soil for my blue berries- have around 25 - and the fruit fabulously.
Great if it works and cheaper!
very interesting , thank you so much, Bachir from Algeria
My pleasure Bachir.
Great video Dan very informative
Glad you enjoyed it.
Hello fro Port Angeles, WA USA! Doing it right! I’ve got Figs baby! Lemons and Limes in the North....it can be done in the right spot!
Hello! Indeed yes!
Love the info and music~
Thanks. Glad you like it.
Great video; keep us updated on your persimmon trees. Hope they produce some nice fruit.
Will do. Thanks for dropping by.
i thought it said permission at first
I have a sunny south facing garden in Dorset and grow bramley apples, plums, raspberries, lakemont grapes, tomatoes, rhubarb and various herbs. I might try a persimmon tree.
Some great crops there.
Your garden looks amazing! I can see you put a lot of hard work into it and it really shows in your plants. I wanted to get out in my garden today and plant some cucumbers but it was our first 90+ degree day of the year and I just could not handle the heat. Thank you for sharing your knowledge of gardening with us. I just love to garden but I still have a lot I want to learn. I make garden videos too. I hope we can learn more from each other as we grow our gardens and our channels.
Good stuff.
Cool video Dan
Cheers Dwight.
Cape gooseberry, tried them outside last year and they flowered wonderfully but did not have time to get mature fruit. Trying them in the greenhouse this year and that's looking very promising. Very envious of your peaches. Trying mine undercover next time
They grow wild in one of my customers gardens! I think she gets fruit from them. The soil is quite light there. Maybe that helps.
Love your garden space. I have my garden on a 9 floor terrace in NY. I planted more vegetables and herbs. Would love to plant some fruits.
Go for it.
I don't eat much fruit, but I love working with it -from growing to preserving and cooking. I have a ridiculous amount in my garden - my neighbour remarked it was looking 'very green' the other day. I can just about walk up to the line.
You have so much there, Dan and the tree yields are impressive. I was surprised to see Lord Napier carrying fruit at this early stage. Do you have people around who would preserve some of the crop for you in return for a share? I am sure with working and the gardens, you have little time left over, but that amount could last you year to year in an ideal world. I hope the heat hasn't been too punishing there, it has been so bad here that I cheated and went to bed 'Siestas' for me.
I will slowly look into this, I am a natural loner so we shall see but....needs must as they say.
Hi after have been watching this video I have got so many fruit trees on my list 😂thank you👍
Enkoy!
Amazing
All my peach trees are in the ground in the tunnels. I had the Dixired in a 30-35 litre pot buried in the ground a few years ago but been in the ground several years now, same with the Lord Napier and the Peregrine, been in the ground nearly a year now.
Watching this video for ideas. I've got a damson tree and a fig tree potted up in my garden and I'm looking to plant various fruit bushes as well.
Great stuff. Go for it.
@@homegardens7682 just ordered hardy kiwi, strawberries, and blackcurrants
Sounds good. I'm sure you will do great.
Great video...if one is in the subtropical USDA zone 8A of Devon ;) Hardly a "cold climate"
A cold climate is Canadian zone 5A, -23 C to -26 C on average! I am at the northern edge of hardiness for my Navaho thornless blackberry, which need a townhouse between it and the north wind of winter, and certain mallow family members. My Issai hardy kiwi is partly protected by a half wall on the north side of the townhouse. I am growing 3 saskatoon berry bushes in large containers in the protected back garden, and a josta berry bush.
Microclimates seem critical in colder hardiness zones, as well as growing perma crops that tolerate shade to part shade.
Greetings. Yes indeed, the term cold climate is definitely all relative. Here is Essex UK (a different part of the UK from Devon) it has got down to minus six degrees c in recent years and as cold as minus 10. Ultimately most of the fruits I am growing here are "cold climate" crops as opposed to hot climate crops such as Mangos, papaya , bananas etc.
Wow i like Fruit
Same here!
Great tips and very very handsome man!
I am glad the video helped!
The video sound is pretty good, beyond my imagination
Glad you like it!
my pear didnt set any fruit this year either! ive got All Gold raspberries and I prefer them to the red ones I have. cant believe how many peaches you have on the tree!!! all looking great x
Its a shame as I do like a nice pear!
Maybe you need another tree,I bought one this year only to find out its not self fertilise.
@@homegardens7682 i bet you do haha. ;P
@@living_my_allotment_life lol!
Hi Dan,same here with the pears,great crop last year but only 3/4 this year that’s the only established fruit tree I have.Bought a few more this year lemon,lime,mandarin oranges,cherry,apple and another pear and a fig they are all in pots.Woodlice have eaten my cherries but apart from that all looking pretty healthy,would like to get a peach tree next year,had most of mine from lidls,thanks for the info,everything’s looking great at yours,all the best !
Oh and blueberries 🤦🏼♀️
And strawberries and raspberries,think that’s it lol
Some great stuff there! How are the Mandarins doing.
Mandarins looking healthy,been feeding once a week with a citrus feed,did have flowers but most have dropped off,no sign of any fruit yet ,hopefully next year! Really want a goji berry plant too one day heard they are pretty hardy here in U.K.
@@cg1173 Yes they are! I think they grow in Siberia as well but do your own research on that one! High in Melatonin as well.
Hi, I’m in Essex growing apples, pears,
Cherries, maybe a cherry plum (it self seeded and I’m not sure yet), black currant and red currant, strawberries, raspberries, Worcesterberries, gooseberries, rhubarb in my forest garden
Good stuff there!
Hello in NYS zone 5 and have 2 baby cornelian cherries, red and black currants, gooseberries, honeyberry, blueberries. 2 plums, 2 pears. I am still figuring out how to prevent the evil squirrels from taking all the fruit! A fig that I need to wrap outside and a petite nigra fig in the greenhouse. A couple of calamondin oranges, variegated pink lemon, regular lemon, sugar cane, banana, passion fruit, Most of the greenhouse stuff is still too young to fruit. Except for the calamondins which made lots of fruit last year and we made marmalade. I enjoyed this video as usual and say persimmon however you like.
Cool. Does your variety of banana crop? What variety is it? I have the squirrel issue here. I think I lost a Persimmon to a squirrel last year. Gotta wrap them!
Such a wonderful variety of fruit! 😍😍😍😍 I really want a lot more fruits in our garden! Strawberries never seem to grow for me... got two blueberry plants from B&M this year... raspberries and Blackberries! My cherry tree seems dead... my pear tree is definitely dead.
my plum tree produced 1 plum this year... 😂 really want an apple and fig tree!!!!
Get them!
Over the last couple of year b&m has had some lovely trees
@@annecy9280 I know right! I was annoyed because B&M replaced a homebase near us! But their garden centre is just as good and way cheaper!
Hi Dan, love the video, new to the channel and the uk. Setting up my property now. Already have established plum trees and raspberries. Raised beds are all planted. Was hoping you could let me know we’re you get your big nets from? I have a big 15 by 8 raised bed and I hear the pigeons can go crazy.
I got my close knit netting from Ebay, seems to stop the butterflies. Something like this. www.ebay.co.uk/itm/321490011808?var=510376212402&hash=item4ada4c46a0:g:0XYAAOSwoBlaedoZ&amdata=enc%3AAQAHAAAA4BaFizqAA19bg0%2B41O9vV1T%2FHqlGgNXRUZt0x3BDrK9PLoHw0cNkLfDp7Svv3V5lcjK9SXxKrI%2BTF1Gy4HItOkERMnemM3WLqNGAsjWq06V7xUfHP59MeX3kQBkooC%2Fy%2BUSBZmbEGyftoidWGCk7tDAA%2BG8ppvNOwJpYRndCB71IDd%2Ff6cTzfap16quq%2BfVPfMLTH3TUGlFyYydGc%2F3Q8gn7bMv%2BUDEUKbMo8Lk8QWw9wmUYOLZ4Z4xR8CT0iVMRcp%2FHBGmIMzrUvbi1eMoU%2BGYlwSDkucllsHirom4Ml4Dp%7Ctkp%3ABFBMqN3muKtg
Fantastic video. I found that Japanese Knotweed is actually a herbal plant. Edible. And is used for paper making overseas which saves trees. I put this JK plant in my daily smoothie. Would love to chat with you about it.
Oh yes, Japanese Knotweed, very invasive though!
In USA you could eat Japanese Knotweed for breakfast lunch and dinner and you wouldn’t run out of this terrible invader.
Lord of the fruit 🍉
Cheers!
im in the USA in zone 6 bordering 7 we are allowed currants and gooseberries here, so i put those in... blackberries, raspberries and black raspberries...blueberries... american pawpaw trees (awesome fruit! grows in cold climates and tastes tropical)... honeyberries (haskap)
as far as apples: we have a serious issue with cedar apple rust :( and many of my favorite varieties are horribly affected by it, so after having several trees fail utterly we put in enterprise and liberty and arkansas black ...
Oh dear. Sorry to hear that. I just looked it up. I imagine you have tried everything but this may help. www.gardenia.net/guide/cedar-apple-rust
Hi there I'm in Christchurch New Zealand I am growing all the types of tree's/plants you are except gooseberries I also have loquat, feijoa, Chilean guava, (pomegranate has been in 5 years flowers but no fruit yet) ,I have seen pomegranate growing locally though. I have to wrestle the blackbirds off my cherry trees.
I have pomegranate variety Provence here. The problem is they flower late and produce late. If you have a longer growing season there then that's great for pomegranates.
@@homegardens7682 your garden looks great have you tried to grow feijoa?also those kiwi berries as mentioned in another comment are cold hardy I grew some from seed but alas died from lack of water whilst little seedlings were small in summer. Chilean guava will grow in shady spots I propagate from cuttings in 3-4 years a plant 60cm x 60cm with abundant fruit late summer early autumn I grow these in pots as I do blueberries
Hey I just saw your video and I live in Canada where it gets negative weather most of the year I was wondering what fruits and vegetables to grow outdoors and harvest in my climate of Ontario Canada
Hello there. I had a quick look on the Internet and there appears to be plenty of fruit one can grow in Ontario. Maybe a trip to a local fruit farm etc could be good and you could see what varieties they are growing.
Regarding vegetables I would guess cabbage, cauliflower, Kale etc could be good as generally very cold hardy.
@@homegardens7682 thank you very much I appreciate the quick response wish all the best mate thanks
I’m growing avocado tree I’ve planted two pits in order to grow avocados
Great stuff.
Just found company in uk called jurassic plants uk thay got fruit trees and shrubs thay call forgotten and hardy in uk my try something new
Sounds good. I may look myself.
thanks for this! ive been after a japanese raisen tree for ages and nowhere has them, except this place it seems!! so very glad you posted.
Dan, ill let you know how it is when it turns up! x
@@living_my_allotment_life Yes do that!
I'm in zone 4a in North Dakota and it can be 30 below in the winter and 90-100 degrees in the summer with drying wind year round. I have done some research of course over the past year since moving here but are there any supper hardy fruit trees and berry type bushes that you may have come across that stand out. Also a very high alkaline heavy clay soil. Don't worry I wouldn't never hold you to it. Enjoyable video as usual!!
Plums and apples are your best choices in North Dakota. Choke cherries are natives and grow well.
I found this, it may help. thegardeningdad.com/best-fruit-trees-to-grow-in-north-dakota/
@@homegardens7682 Yes looks like an enjoyable read - Thanks
@@jeffreyrossi5084 Hope it helps.
Hi just stumbled across your channel, have you have tried to grow fruit trees from cuttings, I've been having great success with willow tree cuttings but fancy trying something else
Sounds good. If you get bored take a look through my channel and there is plenty of permaculture stuff on there including grafting.
Hi,love ur gardening, can you please tell me,where you got the kaki plants and how much was it,please send me the link

Whilst watering blueberries could we add a few teaspoons of white vinegar to our watering cans to get the required PH?
I have heard of people doing this, two teaspoons per gallon of water every other week or something. I have never done it though.
I like Gala apples and I have a space near a north east facing fence, which gets about 4 hours sun a day - do you think that would be enough or would the fruits end up sour? The soil is acidic (neighbours' oak trees drop plenty of leaves). What do you think?
By the way, I tasted Pac Choi for the first time yesterday. Didn't like the leaves raw, but tried steaming them for a few mins and quite liked them. When cooked they taste a bit like spinach, but milder. Something new I would never have grown or eaten, if I hadn't watched your channel, so thanks Dan. ☺ Maybe I will grow them in the autumn/winter, as they will be a useful cool weather crop for my tom house once the toms are finished.
Better an apple tree than no apple tree but a minimum of six hours full sunlight would be better. You could maybe try a cooking apple there if that's your only place or maybe a sour cherry? Fruit likes soil a bit on the acidic side so that's ok.
@@homegardens7682 Thanks Dan. I don't use cooking apples, but I eat a Gala apple most days. I will observe the light levels there and if it's less than 6 hours direct sun I will rule it out.
Have you got any ripe toms yet? We have a few just starting to ripen, but they are about 3 weeks later than last year. Cues are doing well.
@@bluemoon6625 Cool. If that area is not suitable maybe one in a pot somewhere could be possible?
I am just starting and thinking what will grow this year
Good stuff.
I grow plums and apples I got a plum Victoria a plum opal a gala apple and a golden delicious
Great stuff.
Which fruit tree do you recommend for growing in an area with winter temperature of around -30C and summer Max of around 35C very little rainfall but 4-5 feet snow during winters which lasts for around 5 months?
Very cold hardy varieties. Maybe visit a local nursery, hopefully they will have varieties that thrive in your area.
But where can you buy persimmon and pineapple guava from ?
I have pear apple and peach in my garden. . love to have other what mentioned.
Thank you
I just looked, they are not easy to get hold of now. Keep looking on the Internet and hopefully you will find one.
I’m moving to Northern Ireland, which I love very much and which has a better growing climate than where I am now (Ontario), but in my heart of hearts I want to grow jack fruit, bread fruit, dates, bananas, and durian. 😜😭😭😭
After growing up in Canada, I’ve had enuf apples, pears, and dare I say strawberries. all berries for that matter! I want mangos and papaya!!
But I don’t want to move to some Caribbean island. Lol
Indeed! The challenges of growing in cooler climates!
I’m growing a mango, bananas, cherimoya and starfruit in Carrsville Virginia “zone 7b food forest”
Very good. What's the coldest it goes there? How do the Mangoes do?
@@homegardens7682 as low as the 20s maybe some short periods in teens I use bubble wrap and small portable greenhouse setups till the trunk size gets big enough
@@drewsfoodforest_tv Sounds interesting. Cheers. Hopefully you will get a crop.
Apples 20+ varietes, pears 10+ varietes , plums 6+ varietes,cherries 4 varieties, peaches 4 varietes,apricots 2 varietes, apriplum, grapes 2 varietes, figs multiple varieties, 3 types kiwi, gooseberry, red, white, black currents, blackberry, mulberry, logan berry, tay berries, josta berries rasberries, blueberry, strawberry, framberry, honeyberry, gojiberry, elderberry, cranberry (not berries yet on this one), pomegranate, lime, aronia berry, june berry.chinean guava, newest addition pineapple guava and pawpaw. All growing on the fenches of our meduim size garden. Use grafting to grow multiple varieties on 1 tree. The berries are lovelybto give fruit from June to Dec in succession. Some of the pot grownbfruits is a lot of effort for not so much return, but the flavours are priceless.
Also have madeline de deux seasons, after 5 years still waiting for the first season 😅🤣, now positioned it on the south facing wall.
Some great fruits there. How do the Goji berries do?
Hopefully it will fruit!
@@homegardens7682 they give fruit quite late on in the season Nov time tend to dry them or eat straight of the bush, not a bad addition
@@annecy9280 Cool. I think I will get a bush or two.
Apple trees are only £4 in the UK?! They cost $50 (bareroot) - $75+ here in Canada! 😵💫
Indeed. This was particularly cheap and it was about seven years ago or so. Most are a lot more than this. I was lucky. It's a very productive tree
hi, where can we get the seeds from? thank you
I'm in the southern cold part of Australia.
2x avocado - haas and bacon varieties
2x dwarf apple
1x olive
2x orange
2x mandarin
1x nectarine
1x peach
1x cold tolerant banana (ordered, hasn't arrived) I think the shop said cool bananas, don't know if that's variety or company haha.
Oh and 6x blueberry and 2x raspberry
Some great stuff there.
@@homegardens7682 add 4x dwarf apples to that list today 😁 granny smith, red fugi, golden delicious and pixie crunch
@@chomes8048 Great trees there.
Yeah but do u guys get any frost or snow down there??
Where can I get a peach sprout?
In Pembrokeshire I grow: figs, pistachio, kiwi, pepper tree, date palm, cherry, apples, bananas, pineapples, mangoes, citrus, paw paw, lilly pilly, all types of guavas, japanese rasin trees, chocolate vine, avocados, plums, raspberries, honey berry, blackberry,
rose, strawberries, walnuts, pecan, bladdernuts, almonds, carob...I'm sure there are other fruits I've not thought of.
Quite a variety there!
Wow super impressive, in heated greenhouse or conservatory?
Wow I want that kind of garden but too sad it's too cold here
Do you grow your guavas and mangoes in a greenhouse or a conservatory? Thanks ❤
I guess "cold" is relative...zone 4..usually reaches-40F each winter!
Very true!
What grow zone are you in? I cannot grow citrus, too cold
USDA 8B. Sadly the Citrus dies due to the cold.
Can you tell me the best time to plant calabrese , tried in March and may and they’ve gone to seed ..?

My only problem, I have to fence out moose and bear or any fruit trees I plant will get massacred.

Christ you’re in Essex 🙀🙀 So am I and I’ve been wanting to grow fruit for years but never actually had the balls to try it, or space tbh. How much space have u got there? Looks totally insane. I saw a video today of all the chemicals used in mass produced fruit that the vile supermarkets import here and it just sickens me. How are u starting a peach and plum tree? I know u can purchase already half grown trees etc. Do u eat all the fruit yourself?
Yes, I eat most of it. Give some away as well.
here because of worrying newspiece about brexit-caused lorry driver shortage for supermarkets
Its an odd video to be getting information on lorry driver shortages...
Growing our own where possible is great,local orchards are brilliant but sadly not so many of them now.
