Blueberries, Pineapples, Papaya, Bananas, Figs

[karlinann]

The folks I'm working with are growing all these things and more in their home gardens. Ain't life grand when you can grow tropical fruits in your backyard. I myself have blueberries and pineapples in my garden. I do need to more my blueberry bushes when cool weather comes. They are up next to the house and are not getting enough water. I also have an orange tree, but it's so tiny that it will take several years to get fruit from it. In the meantime I'll be buying my tropical fruit at Save A Lot.

I would love to be able to grown tropical fruit in my backyard, especially oranges and lemons, also love pineapple but it makes my mouth raw...

Boffler, try the Gold Pineappke! My daughter introduced me to it, as she has always been sensitive to regular pineapple. It's a pineapple that "doesn't bite back!"
