Recommendations for fruit trees with 'weeping' form?
Comments (9)ashleysf they have Weeping Mulberry at Edible Landscaping. I found this on Weeping Cherry trees.... Fruit Weeping cherry trees do produce fruit, but it is considered inedible due to its small size and sour taste. However, the trees are very attractive to wild birds, which feed on the fruit and often build nests within the branches. Most weeping cherry tree owners enjoy the opportunity for bird-watching, but if you have a vegetable garden or other fruit trees, wild birds can become a nuisance. Kinda makes me think the Weeping Mulberry would be a better tree for you. As a bonus it grows to roughly the same height as the Weeping Santa Rosa Plum with the same weeping habit....See MoreWeeping Santa Rosa Plum tree not blooming or producing

I have quite a few figs in containers along my fence line, as well as an ultra-dwarf peach and nectarine. It's been a lot of work. Still not done. I have several plants outside that still need to go in the ground and I hope to get that done this weekend. Everything is young and immature so the yard looks sparse but give it a few years and it'll look nice.

My goal is to finally clean up the yard this weekend. It's in a constant state of weeding, planting, mulching......See MoreWhy are my fruit trees flowering now?
Comments (6)Out of season blooming is usually triggered by temperature fluctuations and shortened day length - the plant is fooled into thinking it's spring because temps and light conditions mimic those of spring to some degree. A number of plants are inclined to do this - rhododendrons, some flowering shrubs and trees....even certain perennials. Usually, the flower production is minor compared to a regular season bloom cycle and doesn't really affect the normal spring show. FWIW, my forsythia is throwing a few blossoms right now, as it does most falls. Doesn't put a dent in the spring flower show, however. Depending on your location, some pollination and fertilization could occur resulting in fruit but it's unlikely....See More- 9 years ago
