Deciduous fruit trees collection featuring apple, peach, plum and pear trees for Bay Area gardens

Deciduous Fruit Trees

Bay Area–friendly deciduous fruit tree, selected for flavor, productivity, and reliable winter chill.

Deciduous fruit trees are the classic backyard orchard staples: they rest in winter, burst into bloom in spring, and reward you with fresh fruit through summer and fall. In the San Francisco Bay Area, the key to success is matching each variety’s chill requirement and bloom timing to your microclimate—coastal, inland, foggy, windy, or hot.

In this collection you’ll find time-tested favorites (apple, pear, peach, plum, apricot, nectarine, cherry, fig, persimmon, pomegranate, mulberry, quince, and more when available), plus low-chill and heat-tolerant picks that perform well in many Bay Area gardens. Whether you’re planting one tree for weekend snacking or building a small home orchard, we focus on varieties that balance great flavor, consistent crops, and manageable growth.

Not sure what fits your yard? Start with your sunlight, space, and winter chill. Then choose whether you want early harvest, long season, or one standout variety that does it all.

Frequently asked questions

1) What does “deciduous” mean for fruit trees?

Deciduous fruit trees drop leaves in fall/winter, rest during cold months, then bloom and fruit as temperatures warm.

2) Do I need two trees for fruit?

Some varieties are self-fertile (one tree can set fruit), while others need a pollination partner. Check each product page for pollination notes.

3) What is “chill hours,” and why does it matter in the Bay Area?

Many deciduous fruit trees need a certain amount of winter chill to bloom and set fruit well. Coastal neighborhoods often have lower chill than inland areas—so choosing the right chill range helps ensure reliable crops.

4) When should I plant fruit trees in Northern California?

The best time is typically late fall through early spring (cooler weather + easier establishment). Container trees can be planted other times with attentive watering.

5) Can I grow fruit trees in containers?

Yes—choose dwarf or naturally compact varieties, use a large container with excellent drainage, and plan for regular watering and feeding.

6) How long until I get fruit?

Many trees start producing in 2–4 years, depending on species, rootstock, and care. Some can fruit sooner; long-lived standards may take longer but can be very productive.

7) Do you deliver throughout the Bay Area?

Yes for many items. Delivery availability and scheduling vary by product size and location—see checkout or contact us for large/oversized trees.
