My Favorite Fruit Trees that Beat the Heat and Bear Fruit Within 2 Years
We've got weeks of 110F+ (43C) heat coming, and these are the fruit trees that will thrive best in it. All 4 of the trees we talk about here are very easy to grow, and will give fruit within 2 years of being put in the ground even from a small sapling.
1. Chinese Jujube (Ziziphus jujuba) aka Chinese date or red date. I have 6 varieties (li, lang, shanxi li, sugar cane, GA866, and chico)
2. Pomegranate - Red wonderful, parfianka, and desertnyi.
3. Fig - Nixon Peace.
4. Mulberry - Pakistan and White (aka green).
If you still have the itch to plant a fruit tree in June/July/August, these trees are your safest bet!
My zone is 9b and I live outside Phoenix AZ. Our temperatures range from 25F to 120F.

Thank you Majd.
Love the focused and useful info, music, and overall production 👌
Love your Chinese jujubee collection! Would love to see a taste test when it’s harvest season.
Great Deal
It is my first time on your channel and I have just subscribed. Thank you so much for sharing. Keep up the good work. All the best on this journey.
wow that's good
Very nice! My mulberry pales in comparison. I think I will cut it way back this fall and train it into a standard form.

Don't be afraid to manhandle your mulberry :)
Great topic as we are constantly busting 100F here in the Sacramento Valley. Xie xie!
My papayas and my jujubes all bear fruits within the first year.
I live in TN and have Chinese jujube. I love the taste, but I heard Indian jujube is tastier.

I tried one recently and it's very tasty, so It's the newest tree I planted this spring! A bit less dry than a Chinese jujube, and sweeter than most Chinese varieties. The issue with Indian is they cannot tolerate a hard freeze, whereas Chinese jujube can.
Where can i get d seeds or saplings to plant??
Did you know that the mullberry leaves can be made into a tea that will clear the cough instantly

I had no idea about that. How do you do it? Just brew the leaves, or any special trick?

@@TouchGrassGardening you gotta get the tender leaves if possible if not any good leaves, just brew them as if you'd do tea it stops a bad cough and heals the lungs oh, the mallow flowers such as hollyhock are also good for phlegm and cough I just dry their flowers
