GARDEN fruit trees
landscaping with fruit trees BY CHRISTINA MOORE
Imagine walking outside your home and plucking delicious fruit right from a tree just steps away! A great improvement to outdoor space that delivers delightful returns is the addition of fruit trees. Fruit trees can add value to your property and hardy installments in your landscape for generations. Not only can they provide beauty and shade, fruit trees deliver organic, healthy food that you can trust and take pride in cultivating yourself. Fall and winter are great times to make your landscape plan for the next year—many trees are becoming bare, annuals are dying out and replacement plantings are on your mind. This is a great time to evaluate where you can add fruit trees and other edible plants and shrubs to the landscape plan, and to replace dying or unwanted plantings. 6 6
