- Yum! It’s so fun to pick juicy fruit right from your own trees. This week, we round up your questions: containers, growing on rocky soils, common problems, and which trees need another to pollinate. Get the answers with Jim Kamas, Fredericksburg Extension Fruit Specialist, Texas A&M AgriLife Extension.
Thx for info.Do we do pruning for peach, plum, apricot every year or every other year? When is time for fertilize? How often?what kind is better? My trees are 6 years.
This is good info
My peach tree has not flowered in a couple of years after we had a strong freeze in Houston. Can you recommend what you think I need to do to help my tree? Thank you for any help.
Can you comment more about not pruning the persimmon tree?
I got pecans the second year but squirrels got them all. They not just took them but they wasted a lot by scattering everywhere in my yard
Thanks for the info. When can I prune my 7 years old Meyers lemon tree/ shrub in austin Texas?
Hope it survived this recent freeze!
I have a plum tree that’s about 12 years old. I have not have no fruit yet.
Gives me beautiful flowers but no food. I’m in around the Houston area. What can I do I am ready frustrated and I want to cut it down.
You need another plum tree
I’m in southeast Texas just north of Houston; I have tons of native Texas peach saplings about 4 feet tall so when should I dig them up for transportation?
I'd move them when it's a bit cooler--in the next month or so.
@@CentralTexasGardener thank you.
I'm near Staples, TX. Can you grow pineapple guava here and get fruit?
I just watched a video on growing a pineapple tree. You should get your fruit in 28 months. But it was highly suggested that you purchase a whiskey barrel pot. Remove the crown excess flesh, let it sit in a small container of water for a few days until you get decent roots and transfer to your large pot. You want to use a soil that drains really well, prune leaves that turn yell, keep your plant watered 2x a week, and make sure your plant gets 8-10 hours of sun.
Does anybody have success with apricots in the San Antonio to Austin area? What lime is best for this area?
I tried twice - in San Antonio - gave up after 4 years. Can't remember what type of apricot it was supposed to be for a climate like central Texas but they still struggled. Maybe a plumcot will do better.
