- We continue our North Florida Food Forest Tour, as we share our surprise when we get to visit each garden & grower & see how each individual space is pushing growing zones & playing with the tropical fruit rulebooks.
Pensacola has some great gardens & Stephanie here in this video doesn't disappoint us with her own edible space! From bananas, papayas & moringa to apples, pears - her trees look great & their speedy growth is unreal!
Since so many of you asked in the comments, we knew it was time to venture out of our growing zone (just north of Tampa, FL). Here is the full North Florida series playlist:

I live in Pensacola too. I just randomly looked up apple trees in Florida and stumbled on this first. Home town hero she is.
That’s awesome!
The absolute neatest Food Forest I've ever seen. It is so neat and organize that is very very difficult to call it a forest at all.
This place is well kept! Hopefully doing another north Florida trip this summer.
I knew an old man who would wrap his banana stalks with multiple layers of newspaper to overwinter them. He would wet the paper down before a freeze, and the iced up outer layers would act as a great insulator for the stalks. If the tops froze, they would not die back near as far. He was in Florihome, Fla.
That's very interesting!
@@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL Can you recommend a variety of bananas , peaches, and pears, for the Gainesville, Florida area? I am on the 9A / 9B border. Thanks, Mark
Just found your channel today - loving the North Florida videos! Thanks!
I love how on top of it all she is! And I love the variety of citrus! Awesome!
I love this chic, her enthusiasm is inspiring....💯💙
Impressive!!
The orange she could not remember is a cara cara. Great tour. Thanks for sharing.
I'm also in Pensacola and searching anna apple information for growing in our area. At first thought i made a mistake planting apples here as friends laughed at me. Wish I knew these folks to network. Anyway, thank you for the awesome video.
What is Anna Apple?
@@HsingSun It's a low chill apple that only needs about 200 chill hours to set fruit. Pollinates well with Dorsett Golden apples (~250 chill hours).
awesome, pretty crazy how bananas are hardy to 9a who would have guessed it, they are the most tropical looking plant out there
Awesome episode
I am so encouraged as this woman lives in Pensacola and I am moving to west and south of Gainesville. She is growing everything I am hoping to grow when i get there. I am so excited and so thankful for your “what’s growing on?” Series! Thanks so much! I have already learned a ton! Love love love your channel. I hope to visit your place too when I come! Awesome!
WOW...so encouraged again...!!!
Nice--great video--nicely produced ! Love how focused, calm & serene she is...just gardening forward ! Happy Thanksgiving, Pete !
Killin it again Pete !! Another great garden/food forest in the spotlight.
You all are close to my grow zone and so excited to see what is possible here! My Anna apple kicked off but have some others to take their place....
doggon green banana ahahahahaha great video thank you both
LOVIN' IT PETE!!!
What an epic neighborhood. Love it!
Wow, I enjoyed that.
Loved this beautiful garden. Well done video
Thank you for your video. I just moved to Crawfordville Florida zone 8b. I have 3 blueberry bushes, 1 red lime which I love and a Hamlin orange tree. Looking to add more and this video gave me some good ideas. I also want to do mulberry or some other type of berry that might do well. 😊
Awesome Vids...
Great vid
Very nice. Not sure about horse pasture but I know cow pastures are sprayed with Grazon. Residuel chemicals can stay in the cow manure and kill trees or garden veggies. I think it breaks down in three years but would be good to confirm. The farmer should be able to inform you if they spray their pasture. May God bless you.
Nice!
Maybe visit her again in 2020 to see all the progress.
Thank you for the video. How long did you get such many papayas?
Why would you plant that pear next to the water meter ? Any root intrusion could be very bad ? It's great that your community welcomes this type of gardening. Good luck, nice vid :).
I think she was proposing to you that apples and bananas are a good marriage.
Hahaha
Where did you say you get your fruit trees from? Please let me know
Hello all. Does anybody know where I can find wild lettuce in Fort Lauderdale? Thank you.....
Where did you get the tropic sweet?
Does she have her own channel? I live about two hours east of her and am on year two of building my food forest
Where can I find a red banana plant
I'm in Highland County Florida in the south side of Lake Placid. It's in zone 9b toward the bottom. It's the Florida Ridge so the soil is very sandy. The average low in January is 51F. Is their a species that will do well here? When is a good time to plant?
Lots of species that thrive there. I’m in zone 9b at my farm. Best time to plant is now, rainy season.
Attention Florida Avocado growers, i am in search of a variety of avocado that i might be able to grow in Virginia Beach, Va. I want to experiment with trying to espalier an avocado to approximately a height of 6-8 feet and grow it long instead of high. I have several south facing area's that have a wall behind the planting area and it would be easy enough to cover if need be for frost and freeze protection. We live in Zone 8A. Any grower contact info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Rich
mexicola,but plant it right against a south facing wall and protect it heavily during the winter,good luck.Keep us updated.
i can tell she served in the military
