COMBO FRUIT TREES
SELF-POLLINATING
There are new varieties on many of our combos now!
Check out each individual page - or the signs at the nursery.
FALL IS AN IDEAL TIME TO PLANT!
(These semi-dwarf trees mature 12 to 15 feet high)
$60 or $50 each if you buy 2 or more
( You may select different types of combos)
Excellent selection - hundreds now in the sales area.
Because of their age and size, these trees usually will fruit 2 to 3 years after planting (depending on where they are planted and how well they are tended & watered.)
Some have fruited while in the nursery sales area this year.
Most of our combo fruit trees are now 5½-6½ feet tall, trunk caliper ¾- 1 inch
All the trees are potted in 5 gallon pots.
