Bobby is truly a fruit tree fanatic - just amazing in what he has achieved in a short period...all this for fun and enjoyment...
Every time I see a new tour of Bobby’s trees it get exponentially crazier 😆
Need regular updates every 3 years or so.
Don't worry about making the video long. Will never get bored.
Thanks, John and Bobby for opening your wonderful fruit tree farm via TH-cam. John, this was a very enjoyable video for everyone aspiring to grow things. Bobby hits the nail on the head that the DOING, the BEING with our plant friends is the goal. The journey IS the goal. Eating the fruits is only the final reward; the mainstay reward is the actual practice of tuning into and helping the life manifest through plants.
John, you are almost at a million subs! I’m excited for you. You have taught me so much. I believe you were the very first gardener that taught me how to garden 🪴
Keep on educating us. Appreciate you! 💜
Unbelievable amount of knowledge here. Thank you. 🌴🥥🙏
Congratulations Bobby. You made it into the TH-cam big leagues now.! Great to see you again.
I too love and admire trees! I think they’re just beautiful!! I even talk to them. 😊
He is living the dream with his own personal paradise.
Bobby puts us all to shame lol he wins the fruit tree crown 👑 LONG LIVE FRUIT KING BOBBY! 🥭 🌴
I watch you over the plus 10 years and more watching you change
Your videos have pushed my brother and I to buy and build our gardens. Together our properties have almost 30 fruit trees and probably 15-25 berries (blueberries,goji,blackberries,strawberries,boysenberry, grapes, currants, honeyberries etc, we also are installing an irrigation system for my brother and his garden. Probably a 1500 sq ft garden
Amazing. Growing fruit has been very rewarding for me as well.
What zone are yall in? I’m in zone 10a and I wanna grow as many berries as possible!!
What a great video! Thanks for doing this, what an amazing garden and collector.
Wow never knew Bobbys setup was so extensive;amazing stuff
Great to see a person that has the passion to grow food! I live here in Wisconsin I grow fruit. Thanks for the great video! It helps me make my garden better and it helps motivate me to finish planting the garden!

Does Bobby have a you tube channel? The Fruitful Trees channel that you linked was a different guy than Bobby on this video.
Don't forget a black racer snake at 29:36
29:35. Notice the huge snake slither across the screen!
Yuh I saw that too😨
and the kid in background
That snake does not look like any kind of venomous snakes. It might be a rat snake, which can help get rid of rodents.
😂😂😂🐍
its most likely a black racer (non venomous native species), a great rodent and lizard eater!
I walked Stowe Lake in SF as a kid 70 years ago!
I never thought Bobby (who I follow on FB) had such a setup. I'm truly impressed.
What is his name on fb?
@@beckywine3407Bobby Biswas
I’ve been dying to see Bobby’s greenhouse. Great tour, John!
Bobby is a fruit ninja in a good ways... !!! May lord Jagannath give him more and more...
🙏🕉️🔱Jai Jagannath
Well said Bobby. There is greater reward in the fruits of our struggles
I don't even know most of these. Very interesting! Thanks for the video John.
Thanks for the videos man they help me a lot
Bobby is a legend
Rad, excellent video!
You can grow anything in Florida. We need more people doing things like this. Permaculture at its finest.🐸🍺🔪🔥
Not plants that require frosts to fruit like cherries and apples
🐸 FVF
Excellent
Great video 🇳🇿❤️
That was a great interview John, thanks. Paul from Fruitful Trees has done videos with him before but I think yours is more interesting. I think if I could I would rather live in a tropical place where I could grow what I want without the challenge, I've been trying to get God(Jesus) to build me a tropical island so I can do that, so far he hasn't said anything about it, that might sound stupid or unrealistic but I have had the privilege of getting to see and visit with God all the way through my life beginning with before I was born, the last time I got to see him and visit with him one of the things he told me was that he wants everyone who belongs to him to have a good life, he also asked me to tell everyone that he is alive, he is real, and he loves all of them, that includes you and all of your friends,family, everyone you meet, and all of your viewers.
Thank ,share growing fruit
Nice collection of tropical fruit trees, im from malaysia and almost half of the trees u said i have around my house. I really hope all the durians trees can be planted outside coz they r really big trees, the pulasan n mangosteen also need more space coz they r really big trees 😊😊
Enjoy the process 🤍
So cool! I only have 20 fruit trees and they are a lot of work already - but I am not retired so not a lot of free time
Great video. I live in Clearwater Florida and have 1 remaining durian tree. Does this guy know where I can get fresh durian seeds that have not been irradiated or chemically treated? The seeds of fresh durian coming from Asia do not germinate or grow vigorously. Fresh seeds from big island Hawaii sprouted in 36 hrs and are vigorous growing. Mike from Florida
Incredible. I suppose anything is possible if you have sufficient resources.
I love this!
WOW
@justincromartie3136 I didn't notice that snake slither by on the concrete behind them @29:35 until you mentioned it. The little girl was only a few feet away.
Wow and I thought I had a lot of plants, lol! But truth be told, if I had 5 acres like Bobby I'd be just like him 😄 I'm curious why the large greenhouse is so dark? I was surprised that it isn't brighter in there. And second question, what does he do with all the fruit he & his family do not eat? Compost? Or just leave it on the ground so nutrients go back into the soil? Thanks so much for a fantastic video and thanks to Bobby for allowing us a tour of his amazing property! Best wishes, Sheri 😊
I had the same two questions! He talked about the sprinkler system but not the lighting. I also thought how it would be cool if he let someone come glean the fruit to share with a food bank. I get not opening up the property to others but one person could gather a lot to share.
I’ve lived in Hawaii for 30 years and never seen cecropia 👀🐐
Palmyra palm takes a very time to fruit.
Is that a poisonous snake at the 29:37 min mark? Also, there's a kid playing right by the snake. Wild!!!
The snake is a black racer. It’s fairly common in Florida backyards. Non poisonous
Good snake, black racer.
29:39 cruising through
How about any nut trees? Almond, pistachio, hazelbut, etc. Maybe you can make a video about that.
How about some chayote my friend! I wish you would do a show on organic plantain growing. I’m super interested
Before everyone in Florida gets too excited this location is in south Florida where chill hours are close to 0 and/or no chance of frost. A lot if these trees would die or not fruit in central Florida
Mangosteen and durian should grow there in Florida .
Gotta be careful sleeping under durian tree. Fruit can fall and kill you
Noni is Hawaiian. 🐸
Tahiti too.
I got toddy palm outside 😂 how my trees love 🖤 outside instead what Bobby inside vs 😂lol I don’t think he is the first fruit if is inside grow and fruit ! I have those fruit already on my trees 😂
😂great growing videos.
Where in Loxahatchee are you situated.Would love to come and see your nursery
Just imagine all the compost he can make with all the fruit that falls down and not being used.
Bobby i was wondering how many different types of Breadfruit trees do you own in your green house????
Congrats on your property in Puerto Rico. I am in Puerto Rico too. I have a farm and own a botanical gardens. Would love to meet up on the west side, I can give you heliconia rhizomes (from about 30 different cultivars) gingers etc. Would like to show you my farm, and botanical gardens
You're gaining weight again buddy. Ck your diet . Love ya. Take care of yourself. Blessings.
Where is Bobby's farm? Does he sell to the public. You only say he is in South Florida. Please share. Thank you.
I have guayaba tree with small fruit .it will mature in summer.
My mom's dad my grandfather is from panjabe India. Was a farmer.
and w farmer here in Imperial County CA desert. Kunda Chell his name .
Tres are a dairy of our lives if you raise them and nurture them. I thought once if
I have a real fav tree I will put my 19 year old cats ashes in it during a repot. Then the cat will help the tree live and be a memorial.
What does one do with this amount of fruit, sell it on farmer’s market?
Any idea if he grows banana passion fruit? Or know anyone who successfully is in FL? I’m in central FL 9b and mine grew from seed to about 3 inches then died 😭
Regular cherries can’t grow in Florida?
Green warehouse
I stay m8d atlantic si i base my growing of of them
How I can Oder from you ,all plant
My biggest question is where do you find these? 150 different types of mango tree? How does that happen? I cant find 50 types of apple let alone 150 types of mango.
What's the name of the farm & contact info...i see videos on bobby but none leave contact info.
Why dies😂 my meye lemon mis with a orange type crossing.
Those trees gets big do not think is right to plant them inside if is outside could be happening 😂 tropical trees not as more than me but ok to look 😂 guamichama had fruit fly be watched before ate !!!! Wax jumbos haha also that langsat is seedling not asap for to produce 😂
What is the name of this business?
Is Bobby from Punjab, India?
His man bun gave it away
Does Bobby ship any fruits? Bobby is a man of wisdom
Florida is very humid. People are leaving due to insurance and rates. OLDER PEOPLE ARE BEING FORCED OUT OF THEIR HOMES WITH HIGH INSURANCE AND TAXES.
Lol....great weather for tropicals!
Don't be Jelly!
Oh Don't forget the Alligators....we see them everyday 😂 NOT!
Man always one of you bots in a video hating.
It’s true. Floridians are being priced out too.
Damn democrats!
higher taxes everywhere
June don't you mean May
3000 ftruit trees.
You mean, "The drink that is drunk around the world..."
Loxahatchee used to be subject to severe frost. BLESS climate climate change for allowing this reflection of Eden to occur.
The only way to avoid the soul sucking taxes of Florida is an agricultural exemption. If he doesn't have an agriculture bussiness license and a history of sales even if the tax assessor grants him an exemption it ccould be subject to legal challenges in the future. It is the history and paperwork of operating a agricultural business with he intent of profits that affords a farmer the protections granted by Florida's Right to Farm Act.
that's acid
What a waste of fruit , on the ground just rotTinG
