How do I choose a variety for a mild-winter area?
Look for low- to moderate-chill varieties. If you don’t know your chill hours, choose cultivars labeled as reliable for coastal or mild-winter climates.
When is the best time to plant?
Fall through early spring is ideal in much of California, because roots establish while temperatures are cooler. Container trees can be planted year-round with attentive watering.
Do I need two trees to get fruit?
Many varieties are self-fertile, so one tree can produce fruit. A second compatible tree may increase yield and help spread out harvest timing.
How soon will I get fruit after planting?
Many trees begin producing within a couple of seasons, with stronger yields as the tree matures. Sun, pruning, and consistent watering all affect timing.
What size will the tree reach?
Final size depends on variety, rootstock, and pruning. With regular training and summer pruning, most backyard growers can keep trees at a manageable picking height.
What if leaves curl or look stressed in spring?
Leaf issues can come from weather swings, watering changes, or common seasonal diseases. Good airflow, proper pruning, and avoiding overhead watering help reduce problems.
