Fruits & Nuts for North Florida

Fruit growing is an interesting and rewarding hobby, which provides fresh fruit at the peak of its maturity. Fruit plants are also an attractive addition to many landscapes.

Many kinds of fruit can be grown successfully in the Florida home garden, including temperate fruits in the northern part of the state and tropical and subtropical fruits in the southern part of the state.

Selection of species and varieties is critical for fruit production, as plants that are not adapted to local weather conditions will generally fail to produce regardless of how much care and attention they receive.
